Overview

The Fukuda Art Museum opened in 2019 with the concept of being 'a museum that lasts for 100 years.' The exhibitions are based on the Japanese painting collection amassed over approximately 20 years by the founder, Yoshitaka Fukuda. The collection is rich in works related to Kyoto, including the Rinpa, Maruyama-Shijo, and Kyoto art schools, providing a deep understanding of Kyoto's art culture. The architecture, designed by Koichi Yasuda, a professor at the Tokyo Institute of Technology, features a modern Japanese design incorporating elements of Kyoto townhouses. The exhibition rooms are designed to resemble storehouses, allowing visitors to enjoy art appreciation in a relaxed atmosphere. The museum's surroundings are a scenic spot that has been beloved by many nobles and cultural figures since ancient times, allowing visitors to experience art amidst beautiful nature. Additionally, joint special exhibitions and common tickets are available with the neighboring Saga Arashiyama Museum of Arts & Culture, allowing visitors to delve deeper into Arashiyama's culture by visiting both museums.
