MK Guide Recommends
Located in the green cultural area of Shirakawa Park, Nagoya City Art Museum is a thoughtfully curated institution focusing on 20th-century modernism and postwar Japanese art. The building itself is a piece of art—designed by renowned architect Kisho Kurokawa, its clean lines and modular design create an ideal setting for rotating exhibitions, retrospectives, and its impressive permanent collection. Highlights include works by artists like Frida Kahlo, Diego Rivera, and Kansuke Yamamoto, as well as pieces representing surrealism, photography, and abstract expressionism. With a peaceful, reflective interior and easy access from downtown Nagoya, it’s a rewarding stop for art enthusiasts looking for a museum that combines international influence with regional roots.
