Overview
An old house rebuilt with red glass in the garden so the whole site reads red, and a mirrored tower at its edge.
About this place
The Teshima Yokoo House (豊島横尾館) is an art museum on Teshima, an island of Japan, designed by Japanese architect Yuko Nagayama in anticipation of the 2013 Setouchi Triennale. Involving a renovation of several old houses in Teshima's Ieura district, the Teshima Yokoo House showcases an exhibition of work by its namesake, the Japanese artist Tadanori Yokoo. Meant to evoke the simultaneity of life and death, much like Yokoo's themes in his own work, it was named one of Japan's best museums by Casa Brutus.
