Mori Art Museum

#artshunting Located on the 53rd floor of the Roppongi Hills Mori Tower, Mori Art Museum is an art museum show case mostly modern , visual arts and some architecture structure. So don’t expect art work like Van Gogh to be on showcase here. it also serve as a observatory for a Tokyo view . getting there is very easy as it is accessible by subway. The closest station to the Mori Art Museum is Roppongi Station

The exhibition Roppongi in the immersive line is a place to visit in Tokyo, bought a ticket to the Observatory, and sent tickets to the Mori Art Museum. Recently, Mori Art Museum exhibited a solo exhibition of Japanese avant-garde artist Yantian Qianchun. It is said that it is the largest solo exhibition so far, and it is worth seeing. A little bit worse before the show, the artist's introduction, at the 2001 Yokohama Biennale, her work began to attract attention in Japan and internationally. Her work is very novel, with "line" as the main material, more like a canvas, a two-dimensional space, a geometric embroidery composed of lines as a brush. After watching this exhibition, I feel a bit heavy. Her creations are usually related to the trauma and memory of childhood, and the network is used to wake up the memories of forgetting.

The term 'catastrophe', signifying 'great disaster' or 'major upheaval', continues to occur around the world. The United States has experienced a series of terrorist attacks, the global financial crisis erupted in 2008, and Japan suffered unprecedented losses in the 2011 earthquake. Through their creations, artists can pass on information about these tragic disasters to future generations. Their personal perspectives, different from the objective reporting of mainstream media, reveal another reality that is easily overlooked under the shadow of majority opinion. They visualize social contradictions and hidden issues, or express the pure personal sense of loss and mourning. On one hand, 'catastrophe' leads us to despair, but on the other hand, can it also stimulate our imagination to rebound, becoming an opportunity for creativity? In a contemporary world fraught with crises such as war, terrorism, refugee issues, and environmental destruction, how should art confront societal tragedies and personal sorrows? What role can it play in our rebirth? This exhibition focuses on 'The Power of Art' to turn negatives into positives, questioning the possibilities therein.

If you like Japanese gardens and Kengo Kuma's designs, then the Nezu Museum located in Minami Aoyama is a must-visit. This private museum, created by Kaichiro Nezu, is also a symbol of Japan's old wealth. He had a personal liking for antiques, bronzes, and Buddhist statues. The museum was originally Nezu's private residence, which was later redesigned by Kengo Kuma into a museum and opened to the public. Apart from the museum's own collection, the Japanese garden is also a highlight, featuring a Japanese tea house surrounded by greenery. However, many of the museum's collections are Chinese Buddha heads, which are quite thought-provoking to see. ☕️Nezu Cafe: Many people visit Nezu, and a big reason must be for this tea house! This cafe, also designed by Kengo Kuma and hidden in the Japanese garden, is enveloped in greenery and is very photogenic. The seats by the window are the most popular. The coffee and desserts here are decent without being exceptional, and the prices are not expensive. 📸Photography tips: If you want to capture the Nezu Museum without any disturbances, look no further ✅Best time to shoot: Weekdays, rainy days, just before closing or right after opening. This timing is particularly important. On the day I visited, it was a light rainy weekday in Tokyo, so there were relatively few tourists. ✅How to get a shot of the usually busy Nezu cafe without people? The tea house actually closes at 4:30 pm, so they stop serving customers after 4 pm. I was actually the last customer that day, and even the tables were already cleaned up. That's how I managed to take pictures freely. ✅Take a shot of the bamboo grove corridor at the entrance before leaving the museum to capture an empty scene ✅A light rainy day is ideal for shooting the garden, as walking with an umbrella in the Japanese garden is very pleasant. If you get tired, you can sit down in a small pavilion and listen to the rain. 🎫Ticket: No reservation needed, just buy on-site ⏰Business hours: 10:00-17:00 (Closed on Mondays) 🌿Surroundings: 🔶Shopping: After visiting the Nezu Museum, you can shop around Minami Aoyama. There are stores like Issey Miyake, Rei Kawakubo, Prada, Lelabo, etc. I also bought a limited edition flap shoulder from Issey Miyake here, which I haven't seen in China, so no worries about clashing bags. Omotesando and Roppongi are not far from here. 🔶Museums: If you have an entire afternoon for exhibitions, you can also visit the National Art Center and the Mori Art Museum, with the Mori Art Museum being a perfect spot to end the day with a sunset or night view. (See other notes for details) 🔶Food: After coming out of the Mori Art Museum, you can have dinner in Roppongi Hills or Omotesando, or take a stroll to the nearby Azabu Juban.

#thingstodo Such a beautiful museum, on the 52nd floor above roppongi hills in Tokyo. Endangered climates and artists recognition of our shared crisis drags you into a number of visual works and brief films. A compelling wall outlines the environmental consequences from the bigging of Japan's great economic lift in the 50s. Especially hard is the story of Minimata and the mercury poisoning of children. We all owe a debt to artists who are able to push back and call out environmental vandalism, especially the Japanse student alliance in the 70s. Especially worth a trip above Tokyo.

#thingstodo The museum houses an amazing collection of temporary exhibits. The one that was exhibiting when we were there had some excellent quality art. I would assume future exhibits will be equally well done, which makes the museum well worth a visit if you enjoy contemporary art.It’s on the 52nd floor. Great customer service and guidance. Since it’s art, it’s a hit or miss depending on your taste in the artists that they feature at that time. No need to buy tickets ahead of time. They have machines up front where you can do that.

It was an amazing experience here in Mori Art Museum. You can see a lot of artworks of famous artists. #museum #artgallery #japan
