Introduction
The exhibition will be held from February 4 to February 23, 2025, on the first floor of the East Building of the Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation Head Office in Otemachi, where many of Tokyo’s businesses are located. The exhibition will feature works in a variety of genres, including paintings, sculptures, and installations by several participating artists.
The exhibition will be structured as a venue to explore the challenges and possibilities we face in today’s rapidly changing society, and to explore new ways of living and thinking. Through art, we aim to provide inspiration for facing the changes in contemporary society and to increase the visibility of Japanese artists. By doing so, we will convey the fact that there are wonderful artists close at hand and realize an exhibition that will lead to the revitalization of the Japanese art world. We also aim to increase the number of people who are interested in art and Japanese culture by making this an annual event and continuing it.
Highlights
Purpose of the event
- Revitalize the Japanese art world and increase the number of people interested in art.
- Raise awareness of Japanese artists.
- Raise awareness of social issues through art.
- To revitalize the city, region, hicines, and community through art.
The exhibition is visible from the outside through the glass walls, making it a public space that can be freely entered not only on weekdays, but also on weekends and holidays. During the exhibition period, group tours by numerous corporations and wealthy individuals are planned, and the artists and their works will be carefully introduced to the public.
The exhibition venue is located in the Otemachi/Marunouchi area, where major corporations are concentrated, and as with the first exhibition, it is expected to attract many corporate visitors and business people. This may lead to new opportunities for art as a hint for business, corporate collections, and collaborations with companies.
