A wonderful free art space hidden on the 8th floor. Bypass the main boutique and use the separate side entrance around the building to catch the gallery lift. The space was incredibly quiet with barely any other visitors, allowing me to fully enjoy the current "Obol" exhibition in complete peace. The sound installations and unique materials create a fantastic, moody vibe. A great, crowd-free cultural gem in the heart of Ginza.

Visited the Maison Hermès Le Forum today. Both the gallery space and the Hermès store itself were truly impressive, reflecting the same elegance and refinement as the brand’s products. As for the exhibition, “Obol” by Andrius Arutiunian, I have to admit it felt a bit too sophisticated for me. The space was almost empty, with only a few sculptures accompanied by music, and I struggled to fully grasp the message behind the work…

Free hidden art gallery! A bit intimidating to approach Hermès, but the entrance to the elevator for this exhibit was actually outside of the building; not inside of the Hermès store. Staff was very helpful in guiding us to the exhibit and gave us a pamphlet of the current pieces on display. It’s not a big museum, but there are a few different rooms to walk through and admire. Definitely a fun spot to stop if you have time to spare in Ginza.

Designed by Renzo Piano in 2001. Worth the visit! Keep in mind that the entrance is separated from the Hermès shop, so you don't need to go through it, as for someone can be quite intimidating. If you see a queue, that is for the shop not for the museum. An hour is more than enough in the building/ museum. Staff is friendly. For photography lovers it's quite interesting!

Lovely small gallery within a beautifully designed building. Entry via side entrance.
