Promising young artists, chosen from those selected for the “Tokyo Wonder Wall” exhibition of works submitted from the general public, have been offered opportunities to showcase their work in solo exhibitions as part of the “Emerging” program that Tokyo Arts and Space (TOKAS) has been implementing since 2001.
The program continues with slightly modified conditions and under the new name “TOKAS-Emerging,” accepting entries from any Japanese resident creator aged 35 or below.
This time we received entries from 137 (individual or groups of) artists from all parts of Japan. Those who passed the first screening based on their portfolios were invited for a second examination in the form of an interview. The six artists we eventually selected after these interviews will be introduced in “solo exhibitions of two-dimensional, three-dimensional, video and installation works by up-and-coming artists” in two separate periods between July and September 2019. The respective featured artists will also appear in talk sessions with special invited guests on the opening days of each exhibition period.
