Osaka Culturarium at Tempozan

The concrete building designed by Tadao Ando features multiple galleries across multiple floors displaying modern art exhibitions and cultural presentations throughout the year.

The museum opened on November 3, 1994, as Suntory Museum Tempozan to commemorate the 90th anniversary of the Suntory company and revitalize the port district.

The gallery focuses on contemporary Japanese and international artists through exhibitions, workshops, and multimedia installations that promote artistic dialogue between cultures.

Located five minutes on foot from Osakako Station on the Osaka Metro Chuo Line, the museum includes lecture rooms, a theater, a museum shop, and a cafe.

The museum received the BCS Prize for its architectural design, which incorporates natural light through strategic window placement and concrete structural elements.
