Setagaya Art Museum

The Setagaya Art Museum (世田谷美術館, Setagaya Bijutsukan) is an art gallery in Setagaya, Tokyo.

The gallery, which opened in 1986, has a permanent collection, some of which is on show at any time, and mounts exhibitions.

The main building of the museum is in a corner of Kinuta Park (its address is Kinuta-koen 1–2, Setagaya, Tokyo). The closest station is Yōga, on the Tōkyū Den'en-toshi Line.

The gallery's permanent collection contains a great number of photographs, particularly by Kineo Kuwabara and (numbering in the hundreds) Kōji Morooka. An unusually large exhibition was "Love You Tokyo" (ラヴ・ユー・トーキョー, Rabu Yū Tōkyō) of 1993, which brought together 265 works by Kuwabara and 1479 by Nobuyoshi Araki.

Elsewhere in Setagaya, the gallery also has annexes devoted to Taiji Kiyokawa, Saburō Miyamoto, and Junkichi Mukai.
