- Matsumoto City Museum of Art -

Located in the heart of Matsumoto City, Nagano Prefecture, the Matsumoto City
Museum of Art houses and displays works by artists deeply connected to Shinshu
(Nagano Prefecture), including world-renowned artist Yayoi Kusama, a native of
Matsumoto, calligrapher Shinzan Kamijo, and Western-style painter Kazuo
Tamura. The collection exhibits allow visitors to experience the rich arts and
culture rooted in the region through the representative works of these
artists. The exterior and entrance of the museum are adorned with polka-dot
motifs and designs by Yayoi Kusama, making the building itself an art space. A
museum shop, cafe, and art library are also located on-site, allowing visitors
to spend a relaxing time.

- Special Exhibition: "Eugène Boudin Exhibition" -

A special exhibition, "Eugène Boudin Exhibition: The Aesthetics of the Moment,
The Pursuit of Light" (July 7th - August 30th, 2026), will also be held. This
is the first major retrospective in Japan in about 30 years of Boudin, the
"pioneer of Impressionism" who guided Claude Monet to outdoor painting.
Through approximately 100 works including oil paintings, drawings, and
pastels, visitors can encounter the charm of the painter who pursued the ever-
changing "moments" of nature.
