Kamiya Museum of Art, Art museum in Handa, Japan
Kamiya Museum of Art is an art museum in Handa that displays contemporary artworks, paintings, and sculptures across interconnected exhibition spaces. The main building and its adjacent annex house permanent collections and rotating displays of different works.
The museum opened in 1983 as a cultural institution dedicated to showcasing post-war Japanese and international art. Its establishment helped shape the regional art scene and continues to reflect evolving artistic interests.
The museum features works by artists who have connections to the region and demonstrates how contemporary Japanese creators approach their craft. The galleries show the dialogue between traditional techniques and modern artistic expression that shapes these works.
The visit includes exploring the main building and an adjacent annex that also houses an artist shop. Allow time to walk through both sections and view the different exhibition areas at a comfortable pace.
The museum operates a specialized paper workshop that produces and sells high-quality materials. This facility actively supports the continuation of traditional Japanese papermaking methods.
