Sumio Goto Art Museum
Discover Vibrant Paintings That Capture the Beauty of Hokkaido's Landscapes
Step into the world of Sumio Goto, a celebrated master of Nihonga — traditional Japanese painting created with natural mineral pigments. The Sumio Goto Art Museum is dedicated to his life's work, showcasing permanent exhibitions of his most famous large-scale paintings and original sketches. Many of these captivating pieces were inspired by the breathtaking scenery of Hokkaido.
Among all the beautiful places in Hokkaido, Kamifurano held a special place in Goto's heart. In 1987, he chose to build his personal studio here, which later became this remarkable museum.
After immersing yourself in Goto's vivid and emotionally rich art, don't miss the chance to visit the museum's restaurant on the upper floor. From here, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the Tokachidake Mountain Range, a perfect spot to reflect on the natural wonders that inspired Goto’s masterpieces.
