Oldest museum in Tokyo Japan

  The Okura-Shukokan is the oldest art museum in Japan, established in 1917. It was built by Kihachiro Okura in an effort to protect Japanese cultural properties from being lost overseas at the time.   Most of the arts on display are Japanese paintings. And some unique items, such as swords used by samurai, are on display. The museum is not very popular among Japanese people, but it is a good place to see the roots of Japanese art. If you are a tourist from abroad and plan to visit Tokyo It will be easier for you to understand Japanese culture if you see such culture.   Address 2-10-3 Toranomon, Minato-ku, Tokyo 105-0001 Japan   Fee $10(USD)

Haruna Tokimatsu amazing artist from Japan

  Haruna Tokimatu's works are characterized by a concept that fuses time and people. She expresses her world view with a little humor. I have the impression that she especially expresses  "happiness" and portrays it well with human expressions. She also releases three-dimensional works, and since he is close to my age, he is a Japanese artist that I would like to personally pay attention too. Must check her works!!
