Tokyo is always changing and evolving. It is a canvas forever in the making, a narrative eternally unfinished, where each chapter adds a layer to the kaleidoscope of experiences.
Ascend to the observation deck on the 52nd floor of Roppongi’s Mori Tower, and through the soaring 11-metre glass windows, visitors are treated to a panoramic view of the Tokyo cityscape—a palpable pulse of urban life. Just one floor above, on the 53rd floor, the Mori Art Museum stands as a contemporary art institution with a global perspective, presenting cutting-edge artistic creations from around the world.
For an art museum, the greatest challenge lies in sustaining perpetual innovation and a sense of novelty. Former Director of the Mori Art Museum, Fumio Nanjo, once remarked, “Contemporary art is constantly evolving, and grasping these changes in real time is crucial.” Hence, the Mori Art Museum eschews permanent collections, opting instead for rotating exhibitions that predominantly feature local artists from Japan and Asia.
Distinguished by its distinctive architecture, diverse exhibitions, and profound cultural exchange, the Mori Art Museum stands as the pinnacle of Tokyo’s art scene, continually introducing new elements and exploring the depths of contemporary art—from painting, sculpture, and architecture to multimedia art.
The Mori Art Museum is committed year-round to establishing an interactive artistic community. Beyond extending opening hours to allow broader public engagement with art, it regularly hosts art workshops, lectures, and educational programs, seamlessly integrating art into the lives of a diverse audience.
