Deets:
The Smithsonian’s Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden has announced that “Yoshitomo Nara: Sentinels of Stillness” (Saturday, Oct. 31, 2026–Saturday, Nov. 7, 2027) will inaugurate its West Lawn when its revitalized sculpture garden reopens this fall. The exhibition of three new monumental artworks emphasizes the interplay between the artist’s life experience and sculpture’s premodern foundation: hand-building with clay. “Sentinels of Stillness” introduces three recent sculptures: “Long Tall Peace Sister” (2025), “Smiling” (2025) and “Tiny Bright Round Eyes” (2025), each a sculptural enlargement of a small clay head created in 2021. Fabricated in aluminum and coated in white urethane paint, the three towering heads evoke the snowdrifts that the artist recalls from his childhood winters. On closer inspection, the trio reveals Nara’s thoughtful attention to material and the play of light on its surface. The forms invite curiosity, contemplation and rest; they are emblematic of the artist’s intention to forward a spirit of peace.

It coincides with the Yoshimoto Nara Exhibit at David Zwirner in New York City October 29-December 12.
