Hiroshima City Museum of Contemporary Art has outlined its current exhibition lineup, with 'Collection Exhibition 2026-I' open from June 27 to September 23, 2026. The museum’s exhibition listing also notes several smaller presentations running alongside the collection show, including a free mini-display of Gordon Matta-Clark video works through July 12, the 'Shinsei Typo Project' materials display through September 23, and 'Naniga OTTA' through August 16.
The museum’s exhibition page places the collection exhibition at the center of its summer schedule. In the Japanese-language listing, 'Collection Exhibition 2026-I' is identified with the subtitle 'Time in the Museum_Chapter 1: Time Machine,' indicating its place within a broader seasonal framework at Hiroshima MOCA. The same page also shows the museum’s forthcoming programming, including the 'Mel Chin' exhibition and an open-program screening beginning July 25, but those events are listed separately from the exhibitions currently on view.
Hiroshima MOCA’s website presents the current and upcoming lineup in a calendar format, with the museum’s opening hours listed as 10:00 to 17:00. The page also notes that the museum is located at 1-1 Hijiyama Park, Minami-ku, Hiroshima, and provides the institution’s contact number as 082-264-1121. The exhibition list is organized across collection exhibitions, special exhibitions and open programs, reflecting the museum’s mixed approach to showing its holdings alongside temporary projects.
Among the shorter-running items, the Gordon Matta-Clark video screening is marked as a complimentary mini-exhibition and remains on view until July 12. The 'Shinsei Typo Project' materials display runs the longest of the auxiliary presentations, staying open until September 23, the same end date as the main collection exhibition. 'Naniga OTTA' continues until August 16. The museum’s listing does not add interpretive text for these displays, but it does make clear that they are presented in parallel with the collection exhibition rather than as separate major shows.
The page also previews a sequence of later exhibitions, beginning with the 'Mel Chin' exhibition from July 25 to October 12, 2026, and an open-program screening of 'Mel Chin's '9-11/9-11' over the same dates. Further ahead, Hiroshima MOCA lists 'Collection Exhibition 2026-II' from October 10, 2026, to January 24, 2027, along with a number of special exhibitions and open programs extending into 2027. For now, the museum’s current focus remains on the summer lineup anchored by 'Collection Exhibition 2026-I' and the three concurrent smaller displays.
