20th century art surrounded by elaborate Japanese gardens
The Adachi Museum of Art was founded in 1980 by Adachi Zenko as a way to combine her passions for Japanese art and gardens. In addition to the beautiful garden that is seen through the windows as if it were a work of art in itself, the museum houses 1,300 works of art from the 20th century that are rotated seasonally. The museum also has a permanent exhibition displaying the work of Yokoyama Taikan, one of the major contributors to classical Japanese nihonga art techniques.
