Celebrating its 40th anniversary, the MOA museum presents an exhibition with selected masterpieces from its collection mostly compiled by the founder Okada Mokichi (1882-1955). Among the highly acclaimed works of Oriental art from Japan, China, and other countries in Asia is the "Red and White Blossoms" by Ogata Kōrin, a pair of uni-fold screens, which is widely recognized as being the artist’s most celebrated masterpiece. The two plum trees—red and white—arranged asymmetrically against a gold-leafed background frame decorative design of stylized plum blossoms and water flow.

"The Tea-leaf Jar with a design of Wisteria" by the legendary pottery artist of Kyoto ware Nonomura Ninsei and the "Tekagami Kanbokujō", one of the three best known calligraphic albums, are also on display. These three National Treasures are joined by select masterpieces, including the "Lady under a Tree" and the "Illustrated Sutra of Past and Present Karma" as well as the "Cosmetic Box in Maki-e with Landscape and Figure Design", and the "Standing Statue of Shō Kannon Bosatsu (Avalokitesvara)", each representing different genres of art.
