Inaugurato nel 1995 nel parco di Kiba, il Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo (MOT) è uno dei maggiori spazi espositivi del Giappone dedicati all’arte del dopoguerra e contemporanea, con una superficie di circa 33.000 metri quadrati. La sua collezione permanente MOT Collection, che conta circa 5.700 opere, abbraccia l’arte giapponese e internazionale dal 1945 a oggi, con un nucleo particolarmente significativo di Pop Art, ed è presentata in selezioni tematiche a rotazione accanto a importanti mostre con opere in prestito. Il museo ospita inoltre il Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo Annual, una rassegna ricorrente dedicata ad artisti emergenti attivi nelle arti visive, performative e sperimentali.
