Lee Ufan Museum, Art museum in Naoshima, Japan

The underground museum building contains paintings and sculptures by Korean artist Lee Ufan, displayed within concrete spaces designed by Tadao Ando.

The museum opened on June 15, 2010 as part of the Benesse Art Site Naoshima, joining other art installations across the island's cultural landscape.

The galleries showcase works from the Mono-ha movement, emphasizing relationships between natural materials like stones and manufactured elements such as steel plates.

The museum charges 1,200 yen for online tickets and 1,400 yen at the counter, with free entry for visitors under 15 years old.

The central arch structure frames different views of the sky and sea throughout the day, incorporating stones selected from local quarries.
