SHISEIDO GALLERY

Dedicated to the ideal of “discovering and creating new values,” Shiseido Gallery has been one of Japan’s most vanguard art spaces since opening its doors in 1919. The gallery has held over 3,100 exhibitions, many serving as the debuts of artists who would later make major contributions to the development of art in Japan. The program ranges from group shows, such as the Tsubaki-kai series of collaborative exhibitions, to ambitious solo projects by leading artists including Ishiuchi Miyako, Kimsooja, and Ming Wong. The gallery has occupied the basement level of the Tokyo Ginza Shiseido Building since 2001. Invited artists frequently respond to the expressive possibilities of the space, distinguished by its five-meter-high ceiling and a mezzanine that provides an expansive view of each exhibition.

Dining options on-site.
