Mori Art Museum, Contemporary art museum in Roppongi district, Tokyo, Japan
Mori Art Museum is a contemporary art museum in the Roppongi district of Tokyo, Japan, housed on upper floors of a tower building. The gallery rooms spread across several levels and offer both enclosed and open exhibition areas for large-scale installations and paintings from around the world.
The museum opened in October 2003 as part of a larger urban development project combining housing, offices, and culture. Since then it has become a destination for international exhibitions often shown in Asia for the first time.
Exhibitions change several times each year and often explore social themes or new artistic movements from Asia and other regions. Visitors encounter site-specific installations and multimedia works designed for the tall gallery spaces.
Admission tickets often include entry to the observation deck located on the same floor. It is best to plan enough time for both areas, as the exhibition halls are spacious.
The location over 200 meters (660 feet) above street level combines art viewing with broad views of the city, making evening visits particularly appealing. During late opening hours visitors can experience exhibitions at night and then enjoy the illuminated skyline.
