Teshima, Japan

Teshima Art Museum

The Teshima Art Museum opened in 2010 on a hillside of terraced rice fields on Teshima island in Japan's Seto Inland Sea. Conceived as a single artwork by artist Rei Naito and architect Ryue Nishizawa, it consists of a low concrete shell — a free-form 40-by-60-meter "water drop" with two oval openings to the sky — that contains Naito's permanent installation Matrix, in which small beads of water emerge from the floor in response to weather, wind, and the changing light of the day.

The Teshima Art Museum hosts a single piece of artwork and is located on the island of Teshima, Kagawa Prefecture, Japan, in the Seto Inland Sea. It is operated by the Benesse Foundation. The architect is Ryue Nishizawa. The museum building is made of a freestanding concrete shell which is 25 cm-thick, 40 by 60 meters, and 4 meters at its highest point. Source: Wikipedia
