Art-World Pilgrimage Site Naoshima Island Unveils New Sou Fujimoto Pavilion

Naoshima, a 3.15-square-mile island in Japan’s Seto Inland Sea, has become a must-see destination for art and architecture aficionados. The island is known for its contemporary art museums designed by famed Japanese architect Tadao Ando, which house a number of site-specific installations by James Turrell, Walter De Maria, and Yayoi Kusama, among others. In March, Sou Fujimoto was added to the list of acclaimed creators when his firm completed an ethereal metal-mesh pavilion on the waterfront. Sou Fujimoto is one of several Japanese architects participating in the inaugural Chicago Architecture Biennial this fall.
