Mori Art Museum Stages Mariko Mori Retrospective 'All That Shines'
The Mori Art Museum, Tokyo, presents Mariko Mori: All That Shines from October 31, 2026 to March 28, 2027. The exhibition is the first major retrospective of the artist in Japan since 2002 and is organized in collaboration with The Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation. It includes approximately forty works spanning more than three decades across performance-based photography, video, drawing, sculpture and large-scale interactive installations. Co-curated by Alexandra Munroe and Kataoka Mami, the show surveys Mori’s practice from her 1990s Cyborg series through later works informed by Buddhist philosophy, animism and astrophysics.
The Signal
The survey arrives as renewed attention turns to artistic practices that link technology with indigenous traditions and metaphysical inquiry. Mori’s integration of brainwave bio-feedback in Wave UFO (1999–2002) and her Faou Foundation projects in Miyakojima and Rio de Janeiro illustrate how her work has evolved from social critique toward immersive explorations of consciousness and cosmic interconnection. For collectors and institutions, the exhibition provides a comprehensive framework for assessing the artist’s trajectory and the market relevance of her interactive installations.
