About Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum

Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum in Tokyo, JP, is a useful starting point for tokyo exhibition venue in Ueno Park, opening Japan coverage through international loan exhibitions, British Museum Japanese art, Louvre/Orsay travelling collections and Japanese public museum culture. The 3 attached exhibitions help the page work both as a collection guide and as a practical route into what is on now.

For a first visit, build the route around international loan exhibitions, Ueno Park museum route, Edo painting and ukiyo-e, modern European art in Japan, British Museum Japanese collection history, Louvre collection history, ancient Mediterranean art, public art museum history and exhibition-led planning. Artists especially worth slowing down for include Utamaro, Sharaku, Hokusai, Hiroshige, Vincent van Gogh, Degas, nineteenth-century French artists, Louvre Mediterranean collection artists and makers and artists represented in Orsay travelling exhibitions. Current and upcoming exhibitions can then help decide what deserves priority on the day.
