Kasama Nichidō Museum of Art, Art museum in Kasama, Japan
Kasama Nichidō Museum of Art displays works by Impressionists and artists from the Ecole de Paris across its exhibition spaces. The facility spans three wings and features an outdoor sculpture garden alongside a historic complex.
The museum opened in 1972 to commemorate the 45th anniversary of Galerie Nichidō, Japan's first commercial gallery devoted to Western-style painting. This founding reflected a pivotal moment in bringing Western art traditions to Japan.
The museum building combines exhibition spaces dedicated to Western art influences with a Japanese architectural approach, reflecting the fusion of artistic traditions.
The museum is located in Kasama, Ibaraki Prefecture, at address 978-4 Kasama and can be explored at your own pace. Multiple wings and outdoor areas allow visitors to spend time moving through the galleries and grounds.
The West Wing houses a collection of artist palettes that offer direct insight into historical painting techniques and color choices. These objects are rarely displayed in museums and provide visitors with an intimate look at how painters actually worked.
