Naoshima museum largely buried in the ground, showing art in spaces shaped by natural light.
Little volume shows above grade; geometric courts drop light into underground galleries. Architecture becomes the condition of viewing.
Highlights
- Courtyards — How does a sky-only opening orient underground rooms?
- Gallery sequence — How does changing brightness prepare you for the works?
