The National Art Center, Tokyo

I went to the National Art Center, Tokyo at Roppongi with my colleague.
The building was beautiful and interesting design.
It was designed by Kisho Kurokawa who is a very famous architecture in Japan.








There is a restaurant of Paul Bocuse who is a famous french Sheff. There was looooong line for the restaurant. It must be very good. But I didn't go. I don't have patience to wait for the line.








This building should serve as a symbol of Tokyo, both visually and functionally. But I have to say that I didn't like this art center functionally. Especially, I didn't like the light in the exhibition room. It should help to show arts beautifully. But the light at the Center made a lot of refractions of the light on the oil paints and photo. Also, it created unnecessary shadow on the arts.
