Teshima Art Museum

Teshima Art Museum
Kentaro Ohno from Tokyo, Japan / CC BY 2.0 · resizedfile
A low concrete shell with no columns, shaped like a water droplet at the moment it lands, set at the corner of restored rice terraces on Teshima. Architect Ryue Nishizawa and artist Rei Naito made it as one work, and two oval openings let wind, sound and light straight in. There is no collection in the usual sense: the single installation is water that seeps from the floor through the day and gathers into tiny moving pools. It is the purest case here of a building that is the art. Expect to sit quietly on the floor for a while, and pair it with Chichu on a ferry day.
