Chichu Art MuseumThe Chichu Art Museum is a museum that focuses on the rethinking of relationship between nature and people. To avoid meshing with the scenery of the island the museum is mostly built underground. The museums holds artworks by the famous Claude Monet, James Turrell, and Walter De Maria. What makes this museum interesting is how the appearance of art changes by the natural light that shines inside, which gives the museum a different aspect depending on the season.
-
Lee Ufan Art MuseunAs a collaboration project between artist Lee Ufan and architect Tadao Ando, Lee Ufan Art Museum is nestled in a serene valley, showcasing Lee's works from the 1970s to present. Ando's semi-underground design beautifully complements Lee's art, offering visitors a tranquil space for contemplation amidst nature's embrace, a serene retreat from the bustle of modern life.
-
Benesse House MuseumNestled along the picturesque coast of Naoshima Island stands Benesse House, a harmonious blend of modern art museum and resort hotel. As the centerpiece of the Benesse Corporation's art facilities on the island, this architectural masterpiece was crafted by the renowned architect Tadao Ando. Each building within the complex boasts its own distinctive artwork and guest rooms, yet what truly sets Benesse House apart is its elevated perch atop a hill, offering breathtaking vistas of the sea—an unparalleled setting for an unforgettable experience.
