Aomori Museum of Art
The Aomori Museum of Art features a design that merges Jomon and modern styles with its pure white exterior. Designed by architect Jun Aoki, it draws inspiration from the Sannai-Maruyama Site. Inside the museum, you can see the "Aomori Dog" by world-renowned artist Yoshitomo Nara, as well as Marc Chagall's massive painting "Aleko." Works by artists from Aomori are also on display. The museum promotes the rich nature and Jomon energy of Aomori to the world. You can enjoy lunch or desserts made with local ingredients at the charming café "Four Cats." The museum shop offers stylish souvenirs and is accessible without entering the museum. At the Aomori Museum of Art, you can have a new experience that brings together Aomori's art, history, and culture.
