Tokyu: Neighborhood Life and Culture

Overview

This fifth edition of the museum’s “Corporations and Art” series looks at the diverse business activities of the Tokyu Corporation. Through such perspectives as “Tokyu and the Neighborhoods of Setagaya,” “Tokyu and Urban Development,” and “Tokyu and Culture,” we examine the historical relationship between the company and Setagaya, the changes undergone by the area’s neighborhoods and lifestyles, and the ways in which Tokyu’s cultural activities have contributed to society. Photographs, works of art and literature, videos, models and maps illustrate the cultural environment that Tokyu has nourished over the past century.
