It is a large-scale exhibition of Godzilla and contemporary art, bringing together new works created by artists from Japan and abroad who are active in a variety of genres and who have faced Godzilla, thought about it, and created it.

In addition to presenting how artists interpret Godzilla, there will be an exclusive diorama that fuses Godzilla and art, and a special video created especially for this exhibition.
