Nakanoshima Museum of Art

The collection is built around Saeki Yuzo, an artist with close ties to Osaka. It also includes works by Modigliani, Dali, Magritte and Frank Stella, and by Jiro Yoshihara and other members of the avant-garde Gutai Art Association. Design is collected too, and the museum runs an archive project on Japanese industrial design. The building has no single front and several entrances, and its public lobby, called the passage, can be entered without an exhibition ticket. A lawn plaza on the second level connects to the neighboring National Museum of Art, Osaka.
