Art Gallery on the sixth floor of Takashimaya Osaka has started a new service which is to prepare the requested art piece from the customer before their arrival by using a dedicated e-mail form. As soon as you arrive at “Namba” Osaka, our expertise at the Art Gallery will greet you on the promised date and time. The aim of this service is to support foreign customers who wishes to learn and purchase Japanese art. So here is our new service to connect customers from overseas with Japanese art pieces.

History of the Fine Arts Division of Takashimaya

In 1909, Takashimaya hosted the exhibition of 100 famous modern painters. It is said the Fine Arts Division of Takashimaya was founded based on this privately held grand-scale exhibition which was the first to be in Japan.
The Fine Arts Division has performed commercial operations, including self-curated exhibitions of new works since its foundation.
Contemporary art became widespread in Japan during the later half of the 20th century. Resposing to such environmental changes, Art Gallery X at Takashimaya Nihombashi opened in 2007, Gallery Next within Art Gallery of Takashimaya Osaka to follow in 2011.
As a department store highly renowned for art, Takashimaya will always engage and propose a living with art.
