Ōita Prefectural Art Center

The Ōita Prefectural Art Center features modern architecture with large windows and open spaces that illuminate the exhibition halls with natural light.

Established in 1977, the center represents a milestone in regional cultural development as one of the first major art institutions in Ōita Prefecture.

The permanent collection houses over 5,000 artworks, highlighting Japanese artists while incorporating international contemporary art movements and traditional influences.

Located within a 15-minute walk from JR Oita Station, the center provides exhibition spaces, performance halls, and areas for workshops and educational programs.

The building incorporates bi-folding glass doors that transform interior spaces into semi-outdoor areas, creating fluid connections between exhibitions and exterior environments.
