Un museo muy bonito, me gustó que desde afuera hay algunas obras con las que puedes interactuar sin tener que entrar. Me tocaron varias exposiciones interesantes. Me sorprendieron con los espacios de James Terrell y Anish Kapoor.

Honestamente, no es un museo que recomendaría como motivo para visitar Kanazawa. Si eres muy fan del arte contemporáneo, puede valer la pena dedicarle una hora, pero en general me pareció bastante limitado. Está muy por debajo de otros museos de arte moderno en Tokio o del museo de Yayoi Kusama en Matsumoto.

Es un museo bonito por afuera, tiene algunas exibiciones interesantes, fui a mirar la famosa pisicina, no era tan fascinante como dicen, para visitarla deben reservar con tiempo, y creo que no valio la pena🫠.
