Nakanoshima Museum of Art, Osaka Describes Four Elements of Its Vision in Keeping with the New Art Museum Development Policy Drawn up in 2014 NAKANOSHIMA MUSEUM OF ART , OSAKA NAKANOSHIMA MUSEUM OF ART, OSAKA Nakanoshima 2021 A community alive with art. An Osaka shaped by art. The Nakanoshima Museum of Art, Osaka describes four elements of its vision in keeping with the New Art Museum Development Policy drawn up in 2014. A world-class art museum attracting worldwide attention 1 We will provide collection galleries that bring out the best in the museum’s first-class collection, and one of the largest event galleries in the Kansai region, fully capable of hosting large-scale touring exhibitions. A progressive art museum with unprecedented originality 2 We will accommodate a wide range of activities for the new museum, such as offering arts immersion using the museum’s abundant collection and actively using the museum’s archives as a source of information. An exciting art museum leading the creation of a bustling and lively city 3 We will provide facilities where people of all ages can easily encounter and enjoy art, with attractive service establishments and open spaces that will transform way people see art museums. A productive art museum serving as a top-class public edifice well into the future 4 We aim to be an art museum with first-rate functionality that is easy to use for everyone—museum visitors, curators responsible for planning and managing exhibitions, businesses responsible for the managing and operating the facilities—well into the next generation. 01 Passage going through the building The passage is easily accessible to anyone and is a place where visiting people can feel at ease. It is a place where anyone, both people with and without interest in art museums, can come and find a place to be themselves. For people passing through as they move across the city of Osaka, it is a fluid space that can hold various activities— at times a space to immerse in art and at times a hub for art-based activities. It is also a space that fuses the interior to the exterior of the building. As a place destined to be the face of the new museum, we called for proposals in a design competition, for the passage to be a bustling and open indoor space that can be easily and freely accessible, not just to museum visitors but to people of all ages. The best proposal that was chosen proffered "an art museum like a metropolis where a variety of people and activities intersect." The new art museum’s passage is a three-dimensional space comprising an atrium five stories high, which acts as the building’s spine and drenches the building with soft light from the ceiling.

  • Takano Ryudai: Daily Photographs 1999-2021
    PRESS RELEASE June 29, 2021 (revised on August 6, 2021)10 改訂] TAKANO RYUDAI: DAILY PHOTOGRAPHS 1999-2021 June 29‒September 23, 2021 T he National Museum of Art, Osaka 2018.11.14.#05, 2018 PRESS RELEASE TAKANO RYUDAI: DAILY PHOTOGRAPHS 1999-2021 TAKANO RYUDAI: DAILY PHOTOGRAPHS 1999-2021 Takano Ryudai (b. 1963) is widely recognized as a photographer who deals with the themes of gender and sexuality. In the 2005 photo book IN MY ROOM, for which he received the Kimura Ihei Photo Award, Takano set out to visualize the ambiguous zone that lies between binary notions of human sexuality such as woman and man, homosexual and heterosexual. At the same time, while making it a rule to take pictures every day without fail since 1998, Takano has undertaken a variety of experiments, and repeatedly examined institutionalized views, and the characteristics and limitations of the photographic medium. The project, called Daily Photographs, remains ongoing. In this exhibition, Takano’s first major solo exhibition at a museum, approximately 130 of the artist’s works will be presented chronologically. Along with Daily Photographs, which serves as the foundation for Takano’s practice, the exhibition will include the gender- and sexuality-themed works that won him prominence; Kasubaba, which focuses on uniquely Japanese chaotic cityscapes; Tokyo Tower, which makes use of fixed-point observation; and the shadow pieces, which Takano has devoted himself to since the Great East Japan Earthquake. Join us as we retrace the actual images and reflect on the changing thoughts of Takano Ryudai, one of the leading photographers of his generation.

  • Daibiru Corporation Corporate Profile
    CORPORATE PROFILE 010_0361932262708.indd 2 2015/07/16 20:33:40 Corporate History Success of Daibiru indicates a new age of building construction. In 1925, two years after its foundation, Daibiru constructed “Daibiru Building,” one of the major office buildings in western Japan in expectation of future concentration of businesses in cities. In 1927, construction of “Hibiya Daibiru Building” in Hibiya, Tokyo, was completed. The eight-story “Hibiya Daibiru Building” adopted the “core system” used for skyscrapers in New York. Numerous architects were impressed by Hibiya Daibiru Building’s elegant exterior, which was the crystallization of Daibiru’s passion for urban development. With the core system, common areas of a building, such as elevators, corridors, and hot and cold water supply facilities, are located at the center of the building. Its logicality and cost efficiency contributed to the progress in building concepts and was highly regarded by the Architectural Institute of Japan. The history of the Japanese office buildings is synonymous with the history of Daibiru, an enterprise that responds to the needs of the era.
