Takehisa Yumeji Museum

Really great work on display. Got given 2 beautiful postcards to celebrate the artists birthday. Admission 700yen... better to buy a multi pass that includes gardens and castle. No photos as that's the rule!

Curated in Japanese only, no English, but content is top-notched. Taisho era’s Takehisa Yumeji’s work is on permanent exhibit, and is the highlight. Showcases both Nihonga style works, poetry, and my most favorite: his kawaii designs (origin of modern day cuteness culture in Japan). It’s a visual treat that will appeal to the creative bunch, especially those in ads or visual designs. The museum is small but has a really good selection of souvenirs such as wrapping papers, masking tapes, tote bags, etc. The museum cafe also serves delicious vegetable curry.

This is a very small scale museum for Yumeji but does a pretty good job featuring some of the artist’s key work. For a much greater collection of his work, you should visit the one in Ikaho, Gunma prefecture.

Went back for a 2nd time to finish checking out the permanent Takehisa Yumeji exhibition. Too bad I didn't have time to try the good curry my friend told me about.

Very small but excellent little museum, curating great shows.

Impressive exhibition

My favorite little gallery. Lost in it...

岡山旅行に行った際、竹久夢二の路面電車に乗った事で興味が湧き来訪しました。弥生美術館と合わせてレトロな気分を味わえて楽しかったです。和服姿の方のお出かけも多くみられました。 女性同士で訪れると更に楽しめると思います。
