A	Ariel Huang on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It was a lucky day to me, unexpected meeting this great Gustav Klimt Exhibition in Tokyo, love it! The exhibition lines design are orderly, mostly of people who visits the exhibition were neat, focus and not that much talks, sometimes they just whispering if they’re needs to discuss. It was Friday and is Special Exhibition so the last admission at 19:30, so many people visits at the day, althought I walked out at 18:00 it’s still many people waiting in line. There have around 120 pieces exhibits in this time, if you was a fan about Gustav Klimt, the Vienna – Japan 1900 works will stunning you, especially visit in Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum, where is cool and calm, full of modern and artistic atmosphere
B	Billy Ho on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is one of my favorite museums in Tokyo. They always have special exhibition from time to time. We just finished visiting the Vincent Van Gogh (Jan2018), you can see the museum had put in a lot of effort and the painting collection is from all over the world. They provide coin lockers (100yen each access) and water fountain. There are also 2 restaurants within the building. Price is reasonable. Don't forget to visit the merchandise shop, they have some nice goodies there!
P	PIastic monre on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A museum located inside Ueno park. I visit here for Vilhelm hammershøi exhibition. Love it so much. You couldn’t take the pictures inside and there is entrance fee, 1600 yen. Worth the price though.
O	Ollie Chompoonut on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great place to visit in Tokyo. Just only 10 minutes walk through the park from Ueno train station. When I was there also have an exhibition of Gustav Klimt but the ticket was a little pricey and the line was super long.
z	zxgoh on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Museum staff were amiable and keen to help out. They were rather coherent in english, so i was able to understand at that point in time, most of the exhibitions were free of charge. The exhibition staff were really nice and were proud to showcase the artworks, it made me feel warm and welcomed. It's a must visit if you like to wander around at a slow pace.
S	Saeko Nakahara on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ You should just go here to have a coffee in the good and silence place If you are looking for cafes to get a little break in the Ueno park. There's Starbucks and the other cafes near here but they are always packed with too many people.
T	Tommy Kurauchi on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Ueno Park has an incredible assortment of museums. The 東京都美術館 Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum is large! There is generally a featured exhibit and these are expertly curated although, depending on the day of the week and the popularity of the current show, the venue can be crowded. As I was leaving the last time after viewing “Vilhelm Hammershøi and Danish Painting of the 19th Century”, my eye was caught by an exhibit in one of the Citizen's Galleries. The artwork on display were carved wood calligraphy panels curated by the 日本刻字協会 (Nihon Kokuji Kyoukai) [Japan Carving Association]. The artists on view included Japanese and other Asian countries and the calligraphy was in kanji, kana, Korean Hangul characters, Chinese and even a couple with English. Photography was permitted and I took many. I actually returned the following day to spend more time in the exhibit which had hundreds of articles. Some has won prizes and there were even a couple that included paper drafts with the finished artwork. The exhibit I visited in January 2020 was the 39th such show. I was informed that it was held annually at the end of January. (Note: 2021 was different because of the pandemic.) This is a show that I will make travel plans around. I will endeavor to curb my enthusiasm and post only a score or so photographs. Photography is permitted in this exhibit and most of the artwork did not have glass covering it. The 1985 sculpture in the entrance courtyard (my sky hole 85-2 光と影 by Inoue Bukichi) is kept nicely polished for selfies.
D	Dev Cat on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Went there to check out the Isamu Noguchi exhibition: Ways of Discovery. It was amazing! The show features Noguchi’s signature Akari lighting works, as well as his sculptures. I really did’t know much about his cultural and family background and the time periods he lived in. This show gave me these contexts, and I leaned the significance of his work more. Some ideas that struck me: sculptures with metal-folding is “origami with metal”. Also, the idea of Karomi = lightness was important. Made me want to visit his studio in Mure in the future.
