Art Island Center is an art and research center, a gallery, and a bookshop.
The Center was established in 2019 on Naoshima, an island in western Japan, which is known as “the art island” because of its art museums and its central position in the Setouchi Triennale art festival.
Art Island Center's projects, programs, and exhibitions explore the identity and resilience of the islands of the Setouchi region, while using Naoshima's status as an international destination to facilitate conversations about globally significant topics.
Our shop carries art books, children's books, stationery and art supplies, select gifts, and other merchandise. We stock both domestic products and imported goods from Europe and the USA. Our main gallery showcases work by artists and researchers from around the world. Our "Engawa Gallery" exhibits work by local/regional artists and craftspeople.

Isamu Noguchi (1904-1988) was one of the most important sculptors of his time. He was a protean artist who, in addition to his sculpture, designed and created conceptual projects, landscaped environments, earthworks, gardens, plazas, stage sets, furniture, and lighting fixtures. The Isamu Noguchi Garden Museum Japan is the fulfillment of Noguchi’s wish that his former studio in Mure is an extension of his museum in New York, that it be a place to inspire artists and scholars. The collection on display (including those on loan from The Noguchi Museum, NY) includes 150 sculptures, many of which are still unfinished.

The totality is his metaphor for the world, an expression of "the notion of the universality of art, especially sculpture, or that which has to do with our environment". This museum preserves the working atmosphere of his studio and also aims to maintain archives that are open to scholarly research. We invite our visitors to experience and enjoy Noguchi’s world through his art and through his unique and timeless interpretation of those eternal verities we all seek.

Sculptor Masayuki Nagare was born in 1923. He had a background as a swordsmith, served as a Zero fighter pilot in the war, and established his own techniques and style not only in sculpture, but also in a variety of other forms such as garden design, ceramics, and furniture design. Nagare Studio is his former residence and atelier, located on the eastern cape of the Aji Peninsula in Takamatsu City, Kagawa Prefecture. Now open to the public as a museum, the space preserves the atmosphere of the past. 

"Les Archives du Cœur", by Christian Boltanski, permanently houses recordings of the heartbeats of people throughout the world. Christian Boltanski has been recording these heartbeats since 2008.
Les Archives du Cœur is a testament to the recordees' existence.
The recordings may be listened to by visitors. It is also possible to record your own heart beat here.

The "Teshima Yokoo House", a collaboration between artist Tadanori Yokoo and architect Yuko Nagayama, was created by altering and renovating an old private house located in a hamlet in the Ieura District, facing the harbor that forms the entrance to Teshima Island. Making full use of the building's existing layout, the exhibition areas are divided into a "Main House," a "Warehouse," and an "Outhouse," displaying 11 two-dimensional works. Other features-a stone garden with a pond, and a cylindrical tower-are devoted to installations, so that the art spaces seem to expand symbolically to cover the entire site, making it a philosophical zone that simultaneously calls to mind thoughts of both life and death. Thanks to the building's use of tinted glass to control light and color, the sunshine, breezes, and natural hues of the island, as well as the artworks themselves, assume a range of different appearances, turning visitors' spatial experience into a series of interconnected collages.

A Tadao Ando-designed inner space, framed by unadorned concrete walls, infuses new life in this about 100-year-old traditional wooden house in Honmura. Here, contrasting elements of past/present, wood/concrete, light/shadow overlap in this space which condenses the essence of Tadao Ando's architecture. Learn about Ando's work and Naoshima history through photographs, sketches, and models, and see how the museum itself has revived this venerable old house.

Benesse House Museum opened in 1992 as a facility integrating a museum with a hotel, based on the concept of "coexistence of nature, art and architecture." Designed by Tadao Ando, the facility is built on high ground overlooking the Seto Inland Sea and features large apertures that serve to open up the interior to the splendid natural surroundings. In addition to exhibiting the paintings, sculptures, photography, and installations in its collection, the Museum also contains permanent site-specific installations that artists have created especially for the building, selecting locations on their own and designing the works for those spaces. The Museum's artworks are found not just within its galleries, but in all parts of the building, as well as in scattered locations along the seashore that borders the complex and in the nearby forest. Benesse House Museum is truly a rare site where nature, art, and architecture come together, in an environment containing numerous site-specific works created for the natural environs of Naoshima or inspired by the architectural spaces they inhabit.
