Taizi Harada Art Museum in Suwa City opened in July 1998 at a site by Lake Suwa with a view of the Northern Alps as a museum that exhibits the works of artist Taizi Harada, whose hometown is Suwa City. Exhibied at the museum are works from "The World of Taizi Harada" series, which ran on the front page of the Asahi Shinbun Sunday edition for two and a half years form 1982. There are numerous other works depicting "hometowns", created by the artist who traveled around the country to capture scenes from various locations, lovingly painting each stone in a fence and each petal of a flower blooming in the field. We hope you enjoy discovering nostalgic and heartwarming scenes form the hometowns.

If you are an art lover and especially a fan of Yayoi Kusama, this museum showcased her art mind from the moment before you step into the compound and throughout the museum. Unfortunately there's no photography allowed inside the museum. Yayoi Kusama's art displays are on the 3rd floor. You could walk up the grand staircase or take the lift. Oh, one more thing, you are not allowed to bring your bag into the gallery, to prevent vandalism and probably accidental damage to the artworks. There's a locker for you to keep your staff though. No worry. The first artwork of Yayoi Kusama is the the great pumpkin. It was a magnificent piece of sculpture. Apart from her polkadotsy artworks, you'll get to see her other intricate works. If you look close enough, you'll see how she painted herself into her works. There are also amateurs artworks on the 2nd & 3rd floor galleries as well. There are some really great works on display including sculpture. Take your time enjoying these great work of arts. If you don't mind walking, its about 10 to 15mims walk from Matsumoto Station.
