Mitsubishi Ichigokan Museum 'Artists Gathering at the Cafe' Collaboration with Luxury Chocolaterie 'Cacao Sampaka' Confirmed!

Mitsubishi Ichigokan Museum (Marunouchi, Tokyo) is pleased to announce a collaboration with 'Cacao Sampaka,' a luxury chocolaterie born in Barcelona, Spain, for the exhibition 'Artists Gathering at the Cafe: From Impressionists to Van Gogh, Toulouse-Lautrec, and Picasso,' which will be held from June 13 (Sat) to September 23 (Wed/Holiday), 2026. This exhibition focuses on the 'cafe' culture that emerged in Paris in the late 19th century. As part of the collaboration, we will implement special scent performances inside the museum, sell the exhibition-limited sweet 'Gelatina de Frutas,' sell cacao soft-serve ice cream, and offer product discounts upon presentation of a ticket. Cacao Sampaka is a chocolaterie that serves the Spanish Royal Family and handles everything from the selection of cacao beans to manufacturing. The exhibition will feature approximately 130 works, including masterpieces by Impressionists, Van Gogh, Toulouse-Lautrec, and Picasso, as well as the Barcelona treasure 'Madeleine' by Casas, showcasing the spread of art born in 'cafes.'
