Shigeo Sasaki, who has collected modern and contemporary art materials in and out of Japan, donated his collection to Independent Administrative Institution, National Research Institute of Cultural Properties Tokyo, in 1997.

And the section of ‘Gutai Bijutsu’ consists of 45 books, 75 periodicals (copies included,) 12 issues of Gutai published by Gutai Bijutsu Kyokai (copies included), 106 exhibition catalogues, and miscellaneous (brochures, invitations and so on, copies included.) Further extensive materials are not yet catalogued, but put into files by artists (342,) galleries (340,) and 144 miscellaneous.
