In our Artist-in-Residence capacity, we host domestic and overseas artists, who conduct creative activities while staying in the facility. We open their creative process to the public in workshops. We also facilitate exchange projects which will inspire regional pride by rediscovering the attractions of nature, history and culture, with local cultural and artistic groups.

Hachi & Seizo Tashima Museum of Picture Book Art launched during Echigo-Tsumari Art Triennale 2009 is a museum of a picture book whose story spreads out in the entire space of the closed school building, what we named “the Walk-in-Palette”. The wooden school building of the former Sanada Elementary School located in the center of the Hachi village in Tokamachi-city, Niigata stands as the stage of the Museum of Picture Book Art. Various lives such as children who used to come to the school and Toperatoto who eats laughter and chattering have turned into artworks and jump about in the school building. In the schoolyard, Shizuka, the goat, born from the picture book, and her baby goats and the diverse range of small creatures live in the biotope created in the abandoned rice field. Please enjoy the spectacular art space of Tashima Seizo whose picture book story spreads out over the entire village in a rich satoyama.

Kiyotsu Warehouse Museum was established in 2015 as a branch of the Echigo-Tsumari Satoyama Museum of Contemporary Art Kinare. Based on the site of a large sports hall of the former Kiyotsukyo Elementary School, which closed in 2009, the building now serves as both exhibition space and storage space for art works. This museum is one of three examples of how Echigo-Tsumari Art Triennale 2015 has renovated and revitalized former primary schools under the theme of “Exchange Between Cities and Locales”. Kiyotsu Warehouse Museum tackles key issues being faced between the city and the local area: the lack of spaces in urban areas for artists to show their work and the difficulty of increasing numbers of abandoned houses and schools in the shrinking population of the Echigo-Tsumari area. This new art museum attempts to resolve these problems by providing a space where visitors can always appreciate more than two hundred artworks even in the off-season or off-years between the Echigo-Tsumari Triennales.
