ArtHistoryClosed · Opens 9:30amFrom £400Ryogoku Station (Toei Oedo Line, exit A3)

Άνοιξε το 2016 στη συνοικία Ryogoku, όπου ο Katsushika Hokusai έζησε το μεγαλύτερο μέρος της ζωής του, και φιλοξενεί περισσότερους από 1.800 πίνακες, σχέδια, ξυλογραφίες και προσωπικά αντικείμενα του καλλιτέχνη. Το γωνιώδες κτίριο, επενδυμένο με καθρέφτες, σχεδιάστηκε από την αρχιτέκτονα Kazuyo Sejima, βραβευμένη με το βραβείο Pritzker. Η μόνιμη αίθουσα του 4ου ορόφου, «AURORA», παρουσιάζει τη ζωή και τις τεχνικές του Hokusai μέσα από αντίγραφα υψηλής ευκρίνειας σε φυσικό μέγεθος και την ανακατασκευή του εργαστηρίου του, ενώ οι περιοδικές εκθέσεις εναλλάσσουν αυθεντικά έργα από τη συλλογή.
