ARTCOURT Gallery

Since ARTCOURT Gallery opened its doors in Osaka in 2003, the gallery has focused on internationally acclaimed artists such as Hitoshi Nomura, Saburo Murakami, and Norio Imai who stood at the forefront of postwar Japanese art as well as Yo Akiyama and Shihoko Fukumoto who have cultivated a unique aesthetic to expand and deepen new forms of crafts, and younger artists who will forge the future. We are devoted to introducing artists who create contemporary art marked by an abundance of conceptual, material and technical originality. Not only do we organize alluring and stimulating exhibitions that make the most of our gallery, but we also coordinate exhibitions outside of Japan, supply commissioned work for architectural or public spaces, and strive to place works in the collections of museums and foundations all over the world. In 2018, ARTCOURT Gallery opened ACG Villa Kyoto, a new viewing room in Kyoto’s Kitashirakawa district. The gallery aims to be a base designed to convey outstanding Japanese contemporary art.
