The exhibition “FORMA SUONO ANIMA,” an outdoor sculpture exhibition of Kan Yasuda at Viareggio, has been extended by six months and will be held until March 15, 2025.

This year marks the 100th anniversary of Puccini’s death, and the city of Viareggio sponsored an outdoor sculpture exhibition in Viareggio, about 5 km from the open-air theater, to honor the “Kan Yasuda’s version of Madame Butterfly” that has fascinated people for 24 years.
Yasuda installed nine sculptures along the seaside street lined with beach houses. In addition, Yasuda installed five sculptures, including the large “MYOMU” in the lakeside plaza next to the theater in time for the performance season.

The exhibition was titled “FORMA (form), SUONO (sound), ANIMA (soul)”.

People placed their hands on the sculptures, which blended into the townscape, and walked through the spaces between them, engaging with them as they wished. People will be able to experience the “form” through their five senses and enjoy the “sound” of opera, which will resonate with their hearts and trigger a great “soul” vibration.

We are pleased to announce the renewal of our website.
