Mori Arts Center Gallery "Brooklyn Museum Special Exhibition: Ancient Egypt"
Ancient Egypt appears in Roppongi!
A selection of masterpieces from the Brooklyn Museum's collection of ancient Egypt is gathered in Roppongi, Tokyo.
Through about 150 artifacts, including sculptures, coffins, jewelry, earthenware, papyrus, and human and cat mummies, we will unravel the lives of the people who created a culture that is more advanced than we can imagine.
The guide who travels with you through 3,000 years full of mysteries is Kawae Xiao, an up-and-coming Egyptian archaeologist who is currently attracting attention.
What kind of life did they lead, what did they eat, and what did they fear? What languages did they speak and what did they write down?
Why and how were the pyramids built? The message entrusted to the mummy. And what is life after death?
We will introduce everything from "facts that you seem to know but don't know" that have been overlooked in previous Egypt exhibitions to the results of research on pyramids using the latest technology, with video and audio.
A space that unearths the mysteries of 3,000 years and awakens the spirit of inquiry for knowledge.
Welcome to the world of ancient Egypt in Roppongi.
