【NEWS！Yang Fudong: The General’s Smile has been extended to May 23 (Sun.)!】
At our museum café (Café d’Art), you can enjoy a variety of foods, sweets and beverages such as “Soya bean milk risotto with chestnut and bacon” (1,050 yen) and “Vin chaud” (1,050 yen). Here on the photo is “Black pepper hot chocolate” (630 yen) where you can enjoy the rich flavor of Belgian chocolate spiced up with black pepper. Why not enjoy this thick, hot chocolate on Valentine’s Day with someone special?
The ongoing exhibition Yang Fudong: The General’s Smile has been covered in several newspapers and magazines. Here are some links (for Japanese articles, please check the Japanese version of our blog):
