Art Aquarium Museum GINZA will hold a special program “Summer Art Aquarium ~Feel the cool of summer with goldfish~” from July 20 to September 20, 2022.
This summer special program, titled “~Feel the cool of summer with goldfish~,” will feature new exhibits and presentations.
Please enjoy the unique atmosphere of summer in Japan at Art Aquarium.
The exhibition area of the “Chochin-rium,” a work based on the motif of “Matsuri Lanterns,” a traditional Japanese lighting fixture, is decorated with layers of wind-bells.
The wind-bells emitting pale light and goldfish swimming like flickering lights in the lanterns express a summer evening in a way that only an art aquarium can.
A tunnel of wind-bells leads to the “Goldfish Bamboo Forest,” a cool summer production.
The collaboration work “Flowerium” with the flower arrangement artist Shogo Kariyazaki will be colored with the vibrant flower “Sunflower”, which is a vitamin color that represents summer.
[Flowerium]
A small new vessel that looks like a vase is made into a large and dynamic work by Shogo Kariyazaki’s ikebana art.
It is a collaboration work with a gorgeous and bewitching world view, a goldfish that swims gracefully with a finely constructed beauty.
With the start of the summer exhibition, a new production has been added. Please enjoy the upgraded work.
New work “Goldfish Display Shelf”
Edo Kiriko, a traditional Japanese craft, goldfish swimming in it, and bonsai, a traditional Japanese culture, are displayed on the shelves.
Edo Kiriko will exhibit the work of Yukinobu Nemoto, and bonsai will exhibit the work of bonsai master Shigeshi Hirao.
Not only new productions, but also new exhibition works have started to be released.
The exhibited works that shine with the traditional beauty of Japan that can only be seen here are a must-see.

Hoshinoya Tokyo, a Japanese-style inn located in Otemachi, Tokyo, will again this year host the “New Year Kabuki Stay” program, a two-day and one-night stay from January 5 to 26, 2024.
For people living in Edo, one of their New Year’s pleasures was to watch Kabuki, and it was a chic way to spend the New Year. Theatrical teahouses supported this way of enjoying Kabuki. In addition to arranging tickets to the theater, the teahouses delighted patrons by providing a complete range of services, including plot notes, tea, sweets, makunouchi box lunches, and snacks and drinks (*1). Hoshinoya Tokyo offers a stay to celebrate the New Year with hospitality similar to the theatrical teahouses of the time.
