O Art Museum

The O Art Museum is located in Ohsaki New City. With its movable walls, video system, and other equipment, the museum is able to hold various types of exhibitions. The museum takes its name from the O in Osaki and the shape of the circular track of the Yamanote Line. The museum was so named because it was to be a new type of art museum that overflows with contemporary style. The museum is used mainly as a rental gallery by those who live in and outside of Shinagawa City and is known as a local museum that provides individuals and groups with a place where they can display paintings, sculptures, calligraphy, photography, and other artworks, which everyone can enjoy.

○ The O Art Museum has a link to the Shinagawa Internet Museum of Art (www2.shinagawa-culture.or.jp/i_museum/), where you can view reference materials owned by Shinagawa City, works associated with Shinagawa City, etc.
