A place of joy and peace of mind

The Hiroshima Museum of Art opened in 1964. It seems that Hiroshima Bank, which celebrated the 100th anniversary of the same year, was founded as a memorial project of history that they walked with the region.
In 1945, Hiroshima turned into a scorched earth in an instant by the atomic bomb dropping. For the past 30 years, Hiroshima has overcome the war and has been on the path of reconstruction. It was a place of joy and peace of mind that was sought in that journey.
This museum has the theme of “for love and peace” and contains prayers for praying for the atomic bomb victims and wish for peace. Here, foreign works from Romantic school in the mid-19th century to Ecoled · Paris, collections of Japanese modern art from Meiji to the present age are stored. Especially it is one of the works of French Impressionists such as Cézanne, Manet, Renoir and Van Gogh. In the front yard of the museum there is a tree of Marronnier donated by the son of Picasso.

There are four exhibition rooms in the museum, and the work in line with the theme is arranged in a balanced manner in each room. Special exhibitions to be held one after another are also drawing attention. It is different from the permanent exhibition, and entertains the viewer.
You can have delicious bread at the cafe ‘Cafe Jardin’. Also, at the museum shop, goods which only available here are sold.
While being in the city of Hiroshima, the surroundings of the museum are surrounded by trees and are very quiet. Let’s forget the hustle and bustle of the city, let’s interact with the art at the end of the slow time flow.

The space of the dome with the rounded shape

The charm of the Hiroshima Museum of Art is not limited to the artworks exhibited there, but also in unique buildings. When visiting here, we recommend that you take a closer look at the building. What I would like to pay attention to is the space of the dome with the rounded shape with the main exhibition halls and the space for exhibition at the underground in the basement.
