About National Art Center, Tokyo
Opened in 2007 in Roppongi, the National Art Center has no permanent collection. Instead it programmes the largest exhibition space in Japan — fourteen thousand square metres across twelve halls.
Kisho Kurokawa's undulating glass facade and floating restaurant cones make the building itself a destination.
