a touch of nature in a buzzing metropolis

July 20th, 2010

Located in the picturesque and high-tech Roppongi development in Tokyo, the Mori Art Museum is known for featuring cutting-edge contemporary Asian artists. A short five minute walk from the Grand Hyatt, this art museum is conveniently located as well. The upcoming exhibit that begins on July 24th is titled ‘Sensing Nature: Rethinking the Japanese Perception of Nature’. This incredible exhibit features recently commissioned works by acclaimed artists, Yoshioka Tokujin, Shinoda Taro, and Kuribayashi Takashi. All three artists use their unique styles and abilities to create impressive installations that express their perception of nature. With most of Japan’s population living in cities, this exhibit offers an intriguing commentary on nature as viewed through urbanization and modernization. More of Tokujin’s adventurous work can also be seen at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City, a scenic eight minute park walk from one of our favorite New York hotels, the Andaz 5th Avenue. This captivating exhibit will be on display at the Mori until November 7^th and is just one of many exciting activities that can be found in Roppongi.
