PERMANENT EXHIBITS Gallery 6 Contemporary History
“War and Peace”,“The Postwar Lifestyle Revolution”

The time from the 1930s to the 1970s has had an impact on today's Japan and the world in many ways. How did people live in that time of significant change throughout society? On the major themes of "War and Peace" and "The Postwar Lifestyle Revolution," the life and culture of the time, and the movement of society and the world surrounding it will be introduced with a wide array of images such as films, commercials, news, etc., restoration models, and dioramas along with living ware and publications of the time. For one year from the opening, a feature exhibition dealing with the "Migration of People" between Japan and the United States will be held in the nearby exhibition room. Now we are earnestly working on the preparation for the opening next March. We hope you will not miss it.
