Naoshima Island - Do not miss out on that if you go to Japan!
Well, not exactly an art-piece per se, but this Japanese Island south of Okayama is an Art project/restort/museum, with hotel buildings and museums designed by Tadao Ando hosting works of Monet, James Turrel, Walter de Maria...
The whole place has a mystical and magical vibe that is ineffable. Special honors go to Chichu Museum, the place is so awesome, it's like having an epiphany.
