Changing the Image from Parlor to Living Room
Hosaka Kenjiro became the museum’s 13th director on January 1, 2021, and in line with the name change to the Shiga Museum of Art as of April 1, 2021, updated the image of the museum as conveyed in its mottoes to “a living room in a park” or “a museum like a living room.” From a formal space to a place for relaxation: museums change with the times.
