Setagaya Art Museum Mukai Junkichi Atelier

Setagaya Art Museum Mukai Junkichi Annex holds a hidden gem of Japanese modern art. Nestled in a quiet residential neighborhood, this intimate space showcases private treasures from artist Junkichi Mukai—each piece feels like an unopened love letter, quietly intense and deeply personal. The small gallery is serene, as if time itself slows down here. Visit in the late afternoon when sunlight slants across the canvas, making colors shift subtly, whispering secrets. Must-see: The painting 'Still Life with Window'—pause for a full minute, just staring. You’ll feel it speak.
