In my opinion, this museum has a unique design. The building is bright and square. The entrance to the museum was through the gift shop. I purchased my ticket and was directed to visit two buildings. As I walked to the first building, I noticed the beautiful grounds and the cafe. The architecture and landscaping were amazing. The first building I entered was circular. There were beautiful pieces on the walls and individual rooms for the rest of the art. This museum is so beautifully laid out that you don't have to worry about missing anything. I saw works by Van Gogh, Renoir, Monet, Manet, Picasso, Berthe Morisot, Cezanne, Degas, and so many more. There was an information card that contained Japanese and English. The gallery wasn't crowded. It was very nice and I really enjoyed it. The next gallery had an exhibition on Alfons Mucha. It was also beautifully laid out. I had not heard of this artist before. I really liked the work.

Spent about two hours here.. the museum itself isn't so large but they have quite a few paintings. Although none of the informative posters are written in English, I liked that the museum guide available on your phone gives you information about each piece of art and the artists themselves (in English or Japanese). The museum is also laid out in an extremely user-friendly manner, with lots of signs and arrows. Helped me feel a lot less dumb since I wasn't left wandering around 😅 The museum gift shop also had a lot of cool products, especially the little flip books. They also have a lot of cat-themed items for some reason?

A smaller gallery in the heart of Hiroshima, near plenty of other attractions such as the castle and of course the atom dome memorial. Really good contemporary exhibition as of the 9/11/24, celebrating some of the best Japanese art of the previous era, encompassing sculpture, painting video and everything in-between. Really worth a check out. Permanent collection was your standard French impressionist fair, some Van Gogh's and Matisse's ect but nothing to write home about.

1420¥ entrance. Galleries are on the small side BUT the pedigree of the work speaks for itself. All the Western greats of the impressionist school are represented; there’s even a Van Gogh I’ve never heard or seen before, but the Modiglianis and Renoirs were excellent. Who ever bequeathed all this had an excellent eye and all the art felt personally chosen and loved. A very good respite if you need a break from all the history lessons on Hiroshima.

art museum of Hiroshima is a two buildings museum. In the first building are exposed pieces from European artist as Monet, Picasso, Modigliani and many others. In the second building, at the time of my visit, there was an exhibition of Mucha's artworks and few Japanese pieces of the permanent exhibition. Cost is 1500 yen and I suggest the visit because is very calm and a beautiful collection.

It’s a smaller museum, but incredibly cozy and has a thoughtfully curated selection of works that don’t overwhelm you. It’s the perfect size for a relaxing visit where you can truly appreciate the art without feeling too tired. Unfortunately, a couple of pavilions were closed during our visit, but the exhibition was still very enjoyable.
