Highlights

  • The Waving Glass Facade: Marvel at the stunning, wave-like glass curtain by architect Kisho Kurokawa. It’s a dynamic structure that floods the vast interior with soft, natural light.
  • A Canvas for Art: NACT has no permanent collection. It is one of Japan’s largest exhibition spaces, a “Kunsthalle” constantly changing to host diverse, world-class art shows.
  • The Soaring Atrium: Step into the light-filled atrium. Inside, two iconic concrete cones house chic cafes, offering a perfect spot to relax surrounded by architectural beauty.

Description

A warm welcome to The National Art Center, Tokyo, a breathtaking cathedral of light in the heart of Roppongi. This is not a museum that holds the past; it is a dynamic stage for the present. The building itself is the first masterpiece. Its magnificent glass facade flows like a great, gentle wave, blurring the line between the city and the world of creativity within.

Step inside, and you are immediately enveloped in a vast, sunlit atrium. It is a space designed to lift your spirits. Because we host only temporary exhibitions, every visit is a new, unique encounter—a blockbuster show from Paris, a deep dive into Japanese design, or a bold look at the future of contemporary art.

We invite you to wander, to discover, and to find a moment of peace in one of the iconic cafes perched atop the grand concrete cones. This is a place for inspiration, and we are so happy you are here to share in the experience.
