Collection Highlights

Our museum's collection began as the Ehime Prefectural Art Museum (opened in 1970), and has since amassed a wide variety of works from Japan and abroad, primarily by local artists. Currently, we present approximately 12,000 pieces to our visitors through rotating exhibitions.
In the "Collection Highlights" section, you can see masterpieces and exceptional pieces that we are proud of, including works by artists who represent our collection, such as Sugiura Hisui, Manabe Hiroshi, and Azechi Umetaro, as well as works from overseas. This year's special feature introduces the Azechi Umetaro Collection, one of our museum's three major collections.

In addition, the mini-project "The Joy of Celebration" will introduce works from our museum's collection, which, despite their diverse backgrounds, have a humble story behind them, created with feelings of celebration, gratitude, or to commemorate something.
