We are pleased to announce that we will be offering a limited number of packages for the second season of the “Hiroshima Night Museum” tour, which includes a ticket to see the special nighttime art tour at the Hiroshima Museum of Art, which is just a short walk from the hotel.
After the closing of the museum, an actor dressed as the artist of the paintings will act as a guide and introduce episodes in the creation of the paintings, the historical background of the time, and the personalities of the painters who lived in the same generation in a story-like manner, involving participants in the story.
The second season will feature a “Japanese painting” version featuring Takeuchi Seiho, Yokoyama Taikan, and Murakami Kagaku, the masters of modern Japanese painting, whose works are also on display at the museum.
Participants will not only learn about the historical background of the time and their styles, but also experience their passion for their works through the encounter with these three painters who aimed to revolutionize Japanese-style painting. After watching the performance, they will surely be able to learn and deepen their interest in art.

The Hiroshima Museum of Art is hosting the exhibition “ZIPANGU: Contemporary Artists Who Defined the Heisei Era” (November 2, 2024 – December 22, 2024). This showcase brings together works by some of the most prominent figures in Japan’s contemporary art scene, including Yayoi Kusama, Takashi Murakami, Makoto Aida, Yoshitomo Nara, Chiharu Shiota, Izumi Kato, Akira Yamaguchi, and Miwa Komatsu. The exhibition has already garnered significant attention, exceeding 10,000 visitors.
HYAKKEI covered the dialogue between contemporary artist Takashi Murakami and Sueo Mizuma, the curator of this exhibition, held at the RIHGA Royal Hotel Hiroshima. We also conducted an exclusive interview with Mr. Mizuma.
The discussions centered on the aspirations behind the ZIPANGU exhibition and offered forward-looking insights, not only into Japan’s art world but also into the rediscovery of value within Japanese culture by its people.
