KAWAMURA MEMORIAL DIC MUSEUM OF ART

Surprisingly, this museum on the outskirts of tokyo has this invaluable collection of Rothko's MURALS supposed to have adorned the walls of the Four Seasons restaurant.

See this to know more about the Rothko room.

Because of the Rothko room, I tried the museum but there are many other worthy of seeing here. If you are an art lover and would like to be away from hustle and bustle of Tokyu for a day, this is a place for you.

In addition to the Rothko room, enchanting was the Twonbly room because of the settings of the room itself with two large windows incorporating the sky and trees under different sunshine outside and Twonbly's artworks - only two, which was also good - being there in THIS room. 

It was an extra gift for me to be able to see TOHAKU's monochrome painting 'Crows and Herons." His  'Pine Forest' is by far my favorite but this one is close.
