Closure and eventual reopening
The museum closed its doors on 18 May 2015 in order to make way for the construction of a new building, to where the museum would be relocated, reopening in January 2020.[3] Construction of the new building (tentatively named the Nagasaka Sangyo Kyobashi Building) begun with a groundbreaking ceremony on June 17, 2016[4] and was completed in 2019. The museum's new name was announced in 2018,[5] combining the words "art" and "horizon".[6] During the long-term closure, various items from the museum's collection have been loaned out for display in other institutions.[7]
