Sakamoto Zenzo Art Museum

The museum is a renovated traditional Japanese house originally built in the 5th year of the Meiji era, featuring tatami flooring throughout.

Sakamoto Zenzo, an abstract painter from Oguni Town, is highly acclaimed both domestically and internationally. His abstract works harmonize beautifully with the traditional Japanese house setting, creating an immediate emotional connection. The museum offers visitors a chance to experience the rich natural environment and culture of Oguni. Sit on the tatami mats and enjoy the slow passage of time.

Sakamoto Zenzo's abstract paintings depict various "forms" that evoke vivid imagery in the viewer's mind.

During his lifetime, Zenzo mentioned in an interview that he drew inspiration from "casual things" and "ordinary objects" in his daily life, striving to create unique "forms."

He also left behind the thought-provoking statement: "I hope my paintings can engage in intimate conversations with the viewer."
