Japan's first public contemporary art museum

It opened on May 3, 1989 as Japan's first public contemporary art museum. The building was designed by architect Kisho Kurokawa and is located on Hijiyama, a small hill overlooking Hiroshima city, allowing visitors to enjoy nature and the views. After being closed for more than two years for renovation work, Hiroshima City Museum of Contemporary Art will reopen in the spring of 2023. Following a special exhibition to commemorate the renovation, which took up the entire building, the collection exhibition will finally resume.
