MOA Museum of Art

It has been 33 years since MOA Museum of Art was established in 1982, and we are currently carrying out refurbishment construction to renovate the exhibition space and museum facilities. The renovation of its lobby area and exhibition galleries are being provided by New Material Research Laboratory, led by world-renowned contemporary artist Hiroshi Sugimoto and architect Tomoyuki Sakakida. Contrary to its name, New Material Research Laboratory is focused on researching materials and techniques used in ancient, medieval, and early modern times, and finding ways to incorporate them in contemporary architecture and pass them down to the future. They will be exploring a myriad of possibilities to design incredible spaces for the MOA Museum of Art.

Amazing architecture make this a must regardless of the exhibits. That's not to say the exhibits aren't wonderful also. My wife and I were fortunate enough to visit when Part 1 of the Best of Museum collection was shown (until March 12) including the Red and White Plum Blossom Screen, which is a National Treasure. At the same time we were able to see the amazing lacquer-ware produced by Kazumi Morose (also until March 12), who is a Living National Treasure. The entrance fee to the museum is 1600 yen, 1400 for those over 65. We paid just 1300 yen since there is a 300 yen discount when showing the entrance ticket to Baien (Plum Park). Long, long escalators take you through to the upper level from where your adventure starts. The restaurant provided the best food we had during our stay in Atami and was well worth the 30 minute wait. The museum closes at 16.30, which is a little early. Buses run directly to the museum from the station. There is also a taxi stand by the entrance where you may be lucky enough to find a taxi waiting.

Nakasendo Hiroshige Art Museum

At this museum we house about 1,400 pieces of art focusing on ukiyoe, hosting project exhibitions and special exhibitions throughout the year as well. We are especially proud of our "Nakasendo Rokujukyu-tsugi Nouchi" (Tanaka collection), which includes the "Nakatsugawa in the Rain". There is also a popular video corner on the 2nd floor Ukiyoe Navigation Room where you can try overprinting and learn about the process of making ukiyoe.
