Last November I went to the Yokosuka Art Museum to see an exhibition on contemporary Japanese sculpture. The star of the show however, was a small exhibition that I didn't even know about in the annex by an artist called Taniuchi Rokuro. He was famous in Japan for his cover illustrations for a popular magazine called Shukan Shincho. The exhibition had a lot of his original paintings and they quite charmed me with their innocence. I really like his style and his sense of composition.
I can also recommend the museum itself, it's a lovely new spacious building on the coast and so it commands a good view.
