The Building 3. The Collection 4. Working With the Community History The City of Chiba first decided to establish an art museum in 1982. In 1989, a basic concept for the museum was formulated. The acquisition of artwork for the museum began in 1990, and construction of the building began the following year. The museum opened in November 1995. On September 13, 2006, the museum celebrated the arrival of its 1,000,000th visitor. The Building The CCMA building is unique in two ways: it shares the building with the Chuo Ward Office, and was built over an old bank building from the early Showa period. It is a bit unusual for a museum to be only on the upper floors of a building, but if you are a Chuo Ward resident and have business in the building, or if you attend a performance in the first floor Saya-do Hall, the museum is conveniently located upstairs for a casual visit. You can also get a nice view of the city from the library and restaurant windows! ![]() The Library The Saya-do Hall is a unique piece of architecture. The building was built as the Chiba division of Kawasaki Bank in 1927 by architect Matakichi Yabe (1888~1941). It became the Chiba division of Mitsubishi Bank in 1943, and was afterwards used from 1971 to 1990 as the Chuo Ward Residents’ Center after its acquisition by Chiba City. When the Chuo Ward Office and the CCMA were built in this location, the city decided to use "Saya-do style" construction in order to preserve this valuable building. The outer building covers the inner one, but was built so that the two buildings stand independent of each other, and no pressure is put on the inside Saya-do Hall. It was also necessary to build an underground parking lot, so the entire hall was dragged to the side during this time, and then dragged back in to construct the rest of the building around it. The hall is currently used for various performance art shows and music concerts. ![]() Saya-do Hall Points of interest
The Collection The museum focuses on artwork falling within the following three categories:
The CCMA is well known for its Ukiyoe collection, since there were no other public museums with a focus on the Edo period at the time of its opening. However, it also has an impressive collection of modern art. You will find the collection of artwork associated with the Chiba area interesting as well, since it is so unique to the location. According to the museum personnel, the "poster girl" of the museum is "Beauty Enjoying the Cool" by Kitagawa Utamaro, which is a silk scroll painting from around 1794. This work was also voted as the number one piece of art that the museums volunteers recommend for others to see. ![]() KITAGAWA Utamaro "Beauty Enjoying the Cool" c.1794-1795, Hanging scroll; ink and color on silk Working With the Community The museum also wishes to become more accessible to everyone, and not just limit the visitors to art connoisseurs. Through the recent years, interactive projects have been incorporated into the art exhibits, such as musical concerts, craft activities, book readings(!), informative classes on the artists or artwork involved, and volunteer led gallery talks. These activities allow visitors without a lot of art knowledge to enjoy the exhibits and to learn more about them. The museum also works closely with local schools, and provides educational tours for students. There are 28 active volunteers at the CCMA as of April 2011. |
