A new curated sales platform with historical scope, AWT Focus invites a guest curator to reassess existing modern and contemporary art narratives through works drawn from Art Week Tokyo’s participating galleries.
The inaugural edition of AWT Focus is curated by Kenjiro Hosaka, Director of the Shiga Museum of Art, Otsu. “Worlds in Balance: Art in Japan from the Postwar to the Present” explores the productive tensions that have driven the emergence of new expression in Japan over the past century, such as those between art and craft, abstraction and figuration, material and immaterial, and nature and technology. Installed across three Okura Museum of Art floors, the exhibition assembles more than 100 works by 64 Japanese and Japan-based artists representing a broad range of generations and practices.
