The recipients of the 36th Prince Takamatsu Memorial World Culture Prize, awarded to outstanding artists from around the world, have been announced, and Marina Abramović, the artist behind “Dream House”—one of the artworks featured in the Echigo-Tsumari Art Triennale—has been selected as a recipient.


Dream House

A traditional Japanese farmhouse inn created specifically for “dreaming.” Guests immerse themselves in the lifestyle of the old satoyama countryside, sleep in rooms decorated in red, blue, green, and purple while wearing designer pajamas, and record the dreams they had the following morning.Since 2000, guests at “The Dream House” have recorded approximately 2,000 dreams over more than a decade. From these, 100 carefully selected dreams were compiled and published as a book titled “The Book of Dreams.” This volume also includes production records and guest contributions. At “The Dream House,” you can not only view the book but also purchase it. It is also available for purchase through our online shop.
