In addition to housing one of the world’s most acoustically perfect concert halls, this complex also has two of Tokyo’s more consistently interesting art spaces. Tokyo Opera City Art Gallery features changing exhibits from contemporary Japanese artists and designers, plus the occasional international show.
The NTT Intercommunication Centre focuses on cutting-edge works and installations that examine the intersection of art and technology. The centre’s ‘open space’ exhibition hall is free to enter; its superlative video library includes important works by artists such as Idemitsu Mako, Bill Viola and Nam June Paik. The ‘project space’ features conceptual, interactive works by artists like Mikami Seiko. If you’ve already visited the art gallery, show your ticket here for a discount on admission.
