Installation view of Gallery 9 ("Glass and Light")
Collection Exhibition
(Gallery 9)
Jiyu Area
“To be a place where everyone is respected and can be themselves.”
Our Vision for the newly reopened Yokohama Museum of Art begins with these words. The museum’s Jiyu Area is perhaps the purest embodiment of this desire—and it is open to the public free of charge! Pieces from the collection are dotted here and there. So please visit as often as you like and take your time to enjoy the art in this relaxed environment.
Glass and Light
[Gallery 9 (Jiyu Area) / Free admission]
During its recent major renovation, the museum got a brand new glass-walled gallery. Bright, sunlit and offering views both in and out, this compact new gallery will now host an exhibition of glass objects from the collection. Even the museum curators gasped at the beauty of the natural light playing on the assembled artworks. Viewed in the morning or the evening, and from inside or outside, the works appear different every time you look at them. So please stop by whenever you can－even if you’re just out for a walk or shopping.
