Archives Exhibition 2020 Remembering the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum’s Original Building<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum was built by a businessman from Kitakyushu, Keitaro Sato, who donated 1 million yen (currently equivalent to about 3.2 billion yen) and opened on May 1, 1926 (Taisho 15).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The building, which was called the “Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum” at that time, was designed by Shinichiro Okada and built in the modern classical style. Befitting the “Beauty Hall of Fame”, the majestic building with colonnades became the setting for numerous exhibitions and a place for people’s creative activities and exchanges.<\/p>\n

In this exhibition, through the archives materials held by the museum, Japan was born in Ueno, following the steps from the construction of the old building to the end of its role with the construction of the new building (currently the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum) in 1975. I would like to take this opportunity to think about the appearance of the first public museum.<\/p>\n
