We loved this little modern art museum. Unlike most of the modern art museums, where I couldn't understand or relate to most of the art work. The art work at the Towada Art Center was more relatable. It's a great place to stay a few hours on your way to the Oirase Keiryu.

Because of the lack of snow, ski resorts were slow to open. But we were glad we came here. The highlight was the four huge stage backdrops painted by Chagall for the ballet “Aleko”.

SHUJI TERAYAMA (1935-1983) Shuji grew up in Aomori. He was a poet of haiku and tanka, prose poet, film director, president of the troupe TENJOSAJIKI, photographer, horse racing critic…and so on. His very various creation can't be described by one word. This museum was founded in Misawa, where he spent his sensitive boyhood.

Shiko Munakata is a world-renowned woodblock print artist, but he has also made significant contributions in the fields of "Yamato-ga"(drawn in India-ink and water colors), oil paintings, and calligraphy. The size of the exhibition room is fairly small due to Munakata's wish for wanting his audience to look at each work of art very carefully. However, his masterpiece "Ten Great Disciples of Buddha" and other powerful woodblock prints, the delicately expressed "Yamato-ga", and dynamic calligraphy works are displayed all year round, along with a print block and various tools for the better understanding of the artist and his art.
This art museum was established as a regional contribution to Hachinohe City, Aomori Prefecture. Unique to reproduction, under bright lighting, you can appreciate a number of masterpieces scattered all over Japan in one place.
