Outline

An Expanded Art Fair for Collecting Contemporary Art

Nakanoshima×Kitakagaya

The contemporary art fair Art Osaka 2025 will be held from Thursday, June 5 to Monday, June 9. Art Osaka is the longest-running art fair in Japan, and is widely known for offering abundant opportunities to encounter works by emerging and mid-career artists. This year, as in recent years, the fair spans two locations. The Galleries section takes place in Nakanoshima, a major cultural hub in Osaka, and the Expanded section unfolds in Kitakagaya, a waterfront area bursting with creativity. This year the Osaka City Central Public Hall in Nakanoshima will be rented out in its entirety, and a special screening program will be presented in its magnificent theater. We invite you to experience Art Osaka 2025, an art fair that connects two of the city’s most dynamic areas.
