Hiroshima Prefectural Art Museum (Hiroshima Kenritsu Bijutsukan)

The main focus of this museum is art created by artists who have some kind of relationship to Hiroshima Prefecture, including Aimitsu (look for his self-portrait), Minami Kunzo, Kobayashi Senko, and Hirayama Ikuo (famous for his paintings of Hiroshima after the atomic bomb, especially The Holocaust of Hiroshima), as well as works from the 1920s and 1930s by non-Japanese artists who have influenced contemporary art in Japan such as Salvador Dalí, Lyonel Feininger, Picasso, and Thomas Hart Benton. Asian decorative arts, including ceramics and lacquerware, round out the permanent collection. If you purchase a combination ticket to Shukkei-en Garden, you can enter the garden directly from the museum. Plan on about 30 minutes here.
