Spend the day with us in Naoshima, one of the Art Islands in Japan. We visited Kusama’s Yellow Pumpkin, Chichu Art Museum, Benesse House Museum, Hiroshi Sugimoto Gallery: Time Corridors, and stayed overnight at the Benesse Museum Hotel before hopping on a boat to nearby island, Teshima.
Watch Part One of our time in Naoshima here where we visited some of the Art Houses, the Ando Museum, Yayoi Kusama’s red pumpkin, and ate some incredible food: https://youtu.be/v1nCl8ktetQ?si=ISNdzZOokSFUaXno
