Mori Art Museum

The Mori Art Museum is one of Asia’s most dynamic contemporary art institutions, situated on the 53rd floor of the iconic Roppongi Hills Mori Tower. Founded in 2003, the museum presents groundbreaking exhibitions drawn from international and Japanese contemporary artists across disciplines including painting, sculpture, video, installation, and performance. Its location within one of Tokyo’s most cosmopolitan business and lifestyle districts positions it at the center of the city’s creative community. The museum is a founding member of the Art Triangle Roppongi, alongside the National Art Center, Tokyo and the Suntory Museum of Art, creating a world-class arts corridor within walking distance. With extended evening hours open until 10 p.m. most nights, Mori Art Museum is a rare institution accessible to working visitors and night owls alike. The museum is particularly celebrated for its bold curatorial choices, regularly addressing social, environmental, and technological themes. Past exhibitions have included retrospectives on Ai Weiwei, Yayoi Kusama, and major showcases of South and Southeast Asian art. Entry includes access to Tokyo City View observation deck, offering 360-degree panoramas of the city. The museum shop curates a carefully selected range of art books, design objects, and exhibition merchandise, reflecting the institution’s commitment to visual culture beyond gallery walls.
