Museum Title
The Niki Museum, which opened in Nasu in 1994, is a unique art museum that is solely dedicated to the works by Niki de Saint Phalle, one of the most famous female artists of this century. It developed from the private collection of the late director Ms.Yoko Shizue Masuda, which was originally shown at the Space Niki in Ueno, Tokyo. Its collection covers the whole career of the artist, and the Museum is filled with the overwhelming power of the works and the passion of Ms. Masuda who dearly loves Niki and her works. The Museum moves the visitors with the positive message coming out from the works full of movement and freedom. The entrance to the Museum is a landscape garden fully representing the charm of nature in Nasu all the year round.
