-====== Kyoto Modern Art Museum ======
-🚧 This article is a work-in-progress. Is it not currently approved.
-The Modern Art Museum of [[location:kyoto]], Kyoto no Gendai Bijutsukan in [[language:yamataigo|Yamataigo]], commonly known as the KMAM, is the largest collection of [[wp>modern art]] and [[wp>contemporary art]] in [[faction:yamatai_star+empire|Yamatai]]. It was built in [[timeline:ye_26]], to replace the old MAM of Geshrinopolis. It stands on the larger Museum Square where also the [[faction:yamatai_star+empire| National Yamatai]] Museum and [[location:imperial_theatre]] stand.
-The museum houses works of contemporary artists of both avant-garde and expressionism art streams. The best known amongst these works is the 'Grainfields in Spring' by Shintani Rai, who is also the most featured in the museum. The museum is maintained by the Department of Information and a non-profit group known as 'Friends of KNAM'. This group also hosts the tours trough the museum, while also offering audio tours.
-The museum also hosts, aside from the permanent collection, a series of temporary exhibits throughout the year, selecting modern artworks from other museums or foreign art. One such exhibit collected all the work by Shintani Rai in [[timeline:ye_34]], which was opened by [[character:ketsurui_himiko|Empress Himiko]], and led to the largest influx of visitors for the museum.
-In terms of visitors, the museum lags behind the NYM, but has nonetheless gained a steady amount of guests since its opening, becoming the second most visited museum since [[timeline:ye_35]]. In terms of profit, the museum maintains a profit, despite the fact that most of its staff are either volunteers or government workers. In terms of critical reviews, the museum gets good impressions from most modern art critics, praising the large collection and overall outlook of the museum.
