In “ART OSAKA” where the trends of contemporary art in Kansai are put together, it is one of our missions to create a meeting place with young talented artists.
We have introduced young artists through the exhibitions named “Awaking by Art”, collaborating with Kyoto City University of Art – Career Design Center since 2013.
As the 4th edition, we will introduce four young stars, who are selected intensively by ART OSAKA executive committees from the University’s annual exhibition in the last February.
We hope to enjoy the transformed room no.6019 by challenging power of young artists.
Partner: Kyoto City University of Arts Career Design Center

We will hold a special exhibition Attack of Japanese Abstract Paintings as part of ART OSAKA 2016. This exhibition is the second in the series, following the selfsame titled exhibition held last year. Focusing on abstract art from the younger generation artists, now in their thirties and forties, we have selected eight artists represented by the fair’s participating galleries. When we think of abstract abstract art, we normally think of abstract expressionist paintings and geometric paintings. In this exhibition, however, we will draw attention to broader media, such as photography, film, and textiles, and introduce artworks which will expand and deviate from the concept of abstract painting, which has its origins in Modernism. We hope this exhibition will provide an occasion for the fair guests to sense the potentials of contemporary abstract paintings.
