vol.014 [Report] Exchange Program vol.3 Nakanoshima Museum of Art, Osaka × The Nakanoshima future city planning council “Nakanoshima River Cruise Tour with Modern Photographs + Paintings”

Date and time: Sunday, February 6, 2022 15:00-16:00
Location: Tosabori River to Dojima River
Speaker: Tomio Sugaya (Director of Nakanoshima Museum of Art, Osaka), Fumio Kishida (Representative Secretary of The Nakanoshima future city planning council)

In the cold sky on February 6, "Aqua Cielo" departed from the Hachikenyahama dock under the guidance of the two speakers.

First, head down the Tosabori River, look at Nakanoshima Park and Osaka City Central Public Hall Nakanoshima on the right, and Kitahama on the left. Sometimes the roof is opened and integrated with the wind and air, and I think about the cityscape at the time when masterpieces were drawn or the famous architecture was built.

The ship passes through Yodoyabashi by height. Compare the photographs of the buildings of the former Asahi Shimbun and the sculptures of the walls of the Festival Hall, and learn about the transition of the hotel in Osaka, while touching the history of the various bridges,Nakanoshima returns toDojima River upstream.

The roof was opened again from the International Convention Center and the area of Rihga Royal Hotel, and once stopped near Nakanoshima Museum of Art, Osaka, which was newly added to Nakanoshima. Take a closer look at the building from the water.

The ship returned to Hachikenya Beach after passing through the center of Watanabebashi, Ohebashi, Naniwabashi and skyscrapers.

The fact that Nakanoshima, which was painted as a painting, is almost the east area from Yotsubashi Street, was probably a "shone" spot for a long time. The flow of people has not changed much since then. However, with the opening of the Nakanoshima Museum of Art, Osaka this time, it was necessary to find more "shone" spots in the west area, make it a "unified" sight, "Nakanoshima", and send out "Osaka Nakanoshima".
