The 'HOKUSAI: ANOTHER STORY in TOKYO' exhibition is set to transport visitors into the world of the legendary ukiyo-e artist Katsushika Hokusai. Opening on February 1, 2025, at the stylish Tokyu Plaza in Shibuya, this exhibition promises an extraordinary journey where art comes alive through the senses.
An Immersive Experience
This exhibition is more than just an art display; it offers an ultra-immersive encounter that engages the body as much as the mind.

From the iconic '36 Views of Mount Fuji' to his vibrant depictions of the atmospheric Edo period, visitors will find themselves enveloped in a narrative that transcends time and space.
Reimagining Ukiyo-e
The exhibit not only showcases Hokusai's art but also invites guests to experience the scenes he portrayed in a dynamic format. Imagine stepping into the flowing, ephemeral world of ukiyo, where the beautiful landscapes and scenes captured by Hokusai can be experienced in three dimensions. The visual representation extends across the entire viewing space, allowing for a comprehensive immersion into the artist’s vision.
What to Expect
The venue is divided into seven distinctly themed zones that unveil various aspects of Hokusai's work from different angles. Each area is thoughtfully designed to tell its own story, bringing to life Hokusai's artistic legacy through sound, wind, and even vibrations felt underfoot. This multi-sensory approach aims to evoke not only the sight but also the emotional depth behind the art.
