July 20th-September 20th, 2022
Art AQUARIUM Museum GINZA will hold a special project "Summer Art AQUARIUM-Feeling Summer with Goldfish, Ryo-" for a limited time from July 20th to September 20th, 2022.
The "Art AQUARIUM Museum GINZA", which opened in May 2022, has the theme of "Hyakka Ryoran-Evolving Art-", and inside the museum is a gorgeous fantasy world where the traditional beauty of Japan shines along with the dance of colorful goldfish. As a permanent facility that expands, we are holding a special exhibition where you can enjoy the changes of the four seasons throughout the year.
In this summer's special project, we will carry out a new exhibition and production under the title of "Feeling summer with goldfish, Ryo". Please enjoy the unique Japanese summer atmosphere of Art AQUARIUM.
・ Cool wind chime tunnel production
The exhibition area of the work "Lantern Rium" with the motif of "Festival lanterns", which is the traditional lighting of Japan, is decorated with many layers of wind chimes. A wind chime that emits a faint light and a goldfish that swims like a shimmering light in a lantern express the summer night unique to Art AQUARIUM. Proceeding through the wind chime tunnel, it is a cool summer production that leads to the "goldfish bamboo grove".
・ Flowerium x sunflower
The collaboration work "Flower Rium" with the flower arrangement artist Shogo Kariyazaki will be colored with the vibrant flower "Sunflower", which is a vitamin color that represents summer.
[Flower Rium]
A small new vessel that looks like a vase is made into a large and dynamic work by Shogo Kariyazaki's ikebana art. It is a collaboration work with a gorgeous and bewitching world view, a goldfish that swims gracefully with a finely constructed beauty.
