"Reshaped Reality"
Osaka Culturarium Tempozan (formerly the Suntory Museum) was designed as an art museum by architect Tadao Ando and completed in 1994. With Osaka Bay as its backdrop and the blue sky as its backdrop, the building's impressive exterior is used by people from Japan and overseas as a base for various cultural activities, and is engaged in a wide range of activities. In collaboration with a German research institute, the venue will host the "Reshaped Reality" exhibition, which asks what it means to be human.
