Morikazu Kumagai Museum
Museum in The Tokyo: Others area
The Kumagai Morikazu Museum of Art was established in May 1985 by Kumagai Morikazu’s second daughter, Kaya, as a private museum on the site of the former residence in Toshima City, where Morikazu resided for 45 years. In November 2007, the museum received 153 pieces of Morikazu's work from Kaya, and reopened as the Toshima City Kumagai Morikazu Museum of Art.
While taking advantage of the features of this museum, which is an important cultural heritage of Toshima Ward, we will continue the history of "Atelier Village" and "Ikebukuro Montparnasse" and become a base for local art culture. In addition, in cooperation with various art and culture projects in and outside of Toshima, our purpose will be to support the cultural growth of the city and to create a vibrant local community. The museum is operated by Kaya Co., Ltd. (headed by Kaya Kumagai).
