This little book introduces the reader to twelve of Tokyo’s galleries and museums which Ashley Rawlings and Craig Mod found the most inspiring. For each art space, general information, a location map, interviews and/or article are provided. By introducing readers to art spaces both new and old, well-known and not, a cross-section of the Tokyo art world comes to light.

This is the second edition of the book. Glossary, list of further resources, and a brief chronology of events in the Tokyo art world from 1950 to 2010 are provided in the appendixes.
