The Ōtsuka Museum of Art (大塚国際美術館, Ōtsuka Kokusai Bijutsukan) in Naruto, Tokushima Prefecture is an art museum founded in 1998 and is one of the largest exhibition spaces in Japan.[1]
Established by Otsuka Pharmaceutical as a celebration of its 75th anniversary,[2] it houses over a thousand full-size ceramic reproductions of major works of art, including the Sistine Chapel, Scrovegni Chapel, triclinium of the Villa of the Mysteries, and Guernica.[3][4] The works are transfer-printed from photographs before being fired and retouched.[5][6] The purpose of this is to give Japanese people who cannot travel abroad the opportunity to see these famous pieces.[7] A robot named 'Mr Art' gives hour-long gallery talks.[8] The museum cost industrialist Masahito Ōtsuka $400,000,000.[9]
