Naoshima New Museum of Art, designed by Tadao Ando, will be his tenth architectural work for Benesse Art Site Naoshima. It will exhibit and build a collection of major works, including newly commissioned, site-specific pieces by artists and groups from the Asian region. The works will be displayed across four gallery spaces in a three-story building that houses two basement levels and a ground floor, as well as in the café area and outdoor grounds. The inaugural exhibition will feature works by eleven artists and groups, including Aida Makoto, Martha Atienza, Cai Guo-Qiang, Chim↑Pom from Smappa!Group, Heri Dono, indieguerillas, Takashi Murakami, N. S. Harsha, Sanitas Pradittasnee, Do Ho Suh, and Pannaphan Yodmanee.
