The hottest spot this spring
Kyoto City KYOCERA Museum of Art
Having been the center of politics and culture in Japan for close to a millennium, Kyoto is a city of the arts with a valuable and extensive cultural legacy that includes Buddhist statues, folding screens, paintings, sculptures and more. The modern city continues to produce a significant number of artists and play host to all manner of art events. The stage for these events is the city’s museums.
Kyoto has four main museums of art and history, collectively known as Kyoto Museums Four. They’re open after 5 pm, and some are also open after 7 pm on Fridays and Saturdays. A quiet, cultural stroll around a museum is a soothing way to spending the evening after a day sightseeing among the crowds.
Opened in 1933, the main building of the Kyoto City KYOCERA Museum of Art is the oldest surviving public art museum in Japan. The museum is a longtime favorite of the people of Kyoto and has played a significant part in art flourishing in the city. On March 21st 2020, the Museum reopens after three years closed for large-scale renovations. With funding from one of Kyoto’s leading global businesses, KYOCERA Corporation, the museum begins a new phase in its history under a new name—Kyoto City KYOCERA Museum of Art.
The updated complex preserves the magnificent original brick building, fusing it with a modern façade dubbed the “Glass Ribbon”. This new feature will be lit up at night in seasonal colors, so in spring you might see pink during cherry blossom season or green representing fresh foliage that sprouts at this time of year. The sloped plaza in front of the building is designed to be a place for people to gather, relax, and enjoy events. And with a café and museum shop just inside the entrance, the museum is more open and modern than ever before.
