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.

This time, we will introduce the "Special Exhibition Alice - A Weird, Weird World" held on the 52nd floor of Roppongi Hills Mori Tower! ☺️.

March 2018 #TokyoTravel When I travel, I like to go up to the observatory of a tall building or tower and look down at the city view. Tokyo, as a mega city, has quite a few observatories. Among them, the one I visited this time was #RoppongiHills in #Roppongi. First, I looked down at Tokyo from #TokyoCityView, and then I also looked around #Mori Art Museum (#森美術館), which was included in the admission ticket. At first, I thought it was just a bonus, but because of the unique works, it was quite fun, so I thought it was a good idea to visit. I think the exhibits keep changing, so I thought I might visit again because of this. #Japan #JapanTravel #WorldTravel #Tokyo #Tokyo #東京

I went to the Chim↑Pom exhibition at Mori Art Museum in Tokyo♪ All the works had strong messages that appealed to the problems of modern Japanese society, and it really made me think. The works were all artsy, pop, and full of humor, so it was a good opportunity for me to think about social issues, even though I had never really thought about them before. Anyway, there were lots of interesting gimmicks, so it was fun, so please go and see it☺︎ #museum "Mori Art Museum Chim↑Pom Exhibition: Happy Spring" 53rd floor, Roppongi Hills Mori Tower, 6-10-1 Roppongi, Minato-ku, Tokyo 106-6150

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.

🕷 "Maman" Floating in the Roppongi Sky—Touching the Soul with the Louise Bourgeois Exhibition: A Visit to Mori Art Museum, Tokyo ⸻ I went to the Louise Bourgeois exhibition at the Mori Art Museum in Roppongi Hills, Tokyo. Welcoming me at the entrance is a gigantic spider, "Maman," approximately 10 meters tall. With its steel legs, delicate body, and dangling eggs, its appearance is said to embody the artist's love as a "protector" for her late mother, as well as her complex feelings toward motherhood. The museum is lined with works that quietly stir the viewer's inner self, including "Couple," featuring intertwined bodies, and "Arch of Hysteria," symbolizing an emotional outburst. Each piece combines strength and delicacy, seemingly embodying family, memory, sexuality, and deepest emotional wounds. 🕒 Opening hours: 10:00 AM - 10:00 PM (until 5:00 PM on Tuesdays) 📍 The Mori Art Museum is located on the 53rd floor of Roppongi Hills Mori Tower, directly connected to Roppongi Station on the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line, making it easily accessible. Even if you're not an expert on contemporary art, Bourgeois's works are like "sculptures of emotion," resonating with each viewer's memories and emotions. I highly recommend this museum for anyone wanting to experience art in Tokyo. ⸻ #LouiseBourgeoisExhibition #MoriArtMuseum #Maman #RoppongiSightseeing #TokyoTrip #ContemporaryArt #ArtTrip #RecommendedTripSpots #TokyoArt #LouiseBourgeois

"Machine Love: Video Games, AI, and Contemporary Art" Did you know that the Mori Art Museum is open until 10 PM? The atmosphere of an art museum at night is just amazing, and you can take your time exploring—it’s highly recommended. Technology and AI are evolving at such a rapid pace, don’t you think? It feels like something new happens every day, and it’s hard to keep up, but it’s so exciting. This exhibition was packed with a sense of the future! From game engines and AI to VR, and even generative AI, which is being hailed as potentially surpassing human imagination, there were so many fascinating works. It was so much fun to walk around with friends, chatting and wondering, "How does this even work?" Also, I got to see works by my favorite artist, Lu Yang, on a big screen, and it was such a thrill. Combined with the nighttime vibe of Roppongi Hills, it was an exhilarating experience. ──────────────── 🖼️ Machine Love: Video Games, AI, and Contemporary Art 📆 Exhibition Period February 13, 2025 (Thu) – June 8, 2025 (Sun) 📍 Venue Mori Art Museum Roppongi Hills Mori Tower, 53rd Floor, 6-10-1 Roppongi, Minato-ku, Tokyo ⏰ Opening Hours 10:00 AM – 10:00 PM Tuesdays: 10:00 AM – 5:00 PM April 29 & May 6: Open until 10:00 PM * Last admission 30 minutes before closing ❌ Closed Open every day during the exhibition period 💰 Admission Fees Weekdays General: ¥2,000 / Students (High School & University): ¥1,400 / Junior High & Below: Free / Seniors (65+): ¥1,700 Weekends & Holidays General: ¥2,200 / Students (High School & University): ¥1,500 / Junior High & Below: Free / Seniors (65+): ¥1,900 ──────────────── Since it’s open late, it’s perfect for a quick visit after school or work.

#freemuseumdays The Mori is currently showing a special exhibit called Machine Love which examines the intersection of contemporary art with AI, virtual reality, and gaming. Not really my thing. For me, the most interesting part of the exhibit was a piece called Calculating Empires, an 80 ft. timeline which charts how power and technology have been intertwined since the 1500’s and how we got to where we are with AI today. The exhibit is overwhelming and you could spend hours there.

On the day I visited the Louise Bourgeois exhibition, I was able to experience her deep emotions and psychological themes. The exhibited works depicted much of her personal history and family relationships, especially with her mother, leaving a strong impression on the viewers. Particularly striking was the large spider sculpture 'Maman'. Its gigantic and delicate form simultaneously evoked the love and fear associated with motherhood, leaving me standing in awe before it for a while. Additionally, the diverse techniques she used, such as textiles and prints, further highlighted the complexity of emotions. Through the exhibition, I realized how deeply Louise Bourgeois confronted her inner self and sublimated it into art. It was an exhibition that left a deep message in the art and remained in my heart. After that, I enjoyed a casual izakaya meal🏮 It was a heartwarming short trip♪
