Located on Nakanoshima island in central Osaka, between the Dōjima and Tosabori Rivers, the National Museum of Art, Osaka is a subterranean art museum designed by César Pelli and completed in 1977. Also known officially as the National Museum of International Art, the museum's underground setting is a distinctive architectural feature that differentiates it from traditional above-ground institutions. Situated approximately ten minutes west of Higobashi Station, the museum serves as a major venue for Japanese and international art.
