At the same time, the very fact that the show is installed in both the Chinese and Japanese galleries is noteworthy.

The other half of the show, installed in the Japanese galleries, is less coherently conceived.

The Japanese gallery is one of my favourites.

The new Japanese gallery displays prints and paintings, armor and sculpture.

The Japanese galleries were inaugurated last year.

The entrance to the Japanese galleries has been lined with silvery bamboo screening that transforms it into the anteroom of a spaceship.

It's installed in the museum's Japanese galleries, and it's wonderful.

Work on the Japanese galleries has been done under his close supervision.

Spread over both the Chinese painting galleries and the Japanese galleries, it traces the flow of influence from one culture to the other.
