The Niigata Prefectural Museum of Modern Art was opened in July, 1993 in the rich greenery of the Senshugahara Furusato no Mori Park.
The museum is built on the Taiko collection which was put together by a local collector, but in addition to Japanese works that show the evolution of modern art, we have gathered 19th century western art from styles such as Barbizon and Les Nabis, styles which are closely related to modern Japanese art, and display them in our collection gallery and special exhibitions. We also hold a wide variety of activities that visitors can enjoy, such as lectures and workshops. At the Niigata Prefectural Museum of Modern Art visitors can connect with the art while at the same time enjoying the nature of the four seasons.
9 a.m.-5 p.m. * Ticket counter closes at 16:30
Closed every Monday. When a national holiday falls on a Monday, the museum is open on the holiday and instead closed the next weekday.
From April 2020, the fees for the main collection and special exhibition will become separate. Those with a ticket for the special exhibition will need a ticket for the main collection. Thank you for your cooperation.
