「EARTH, WIND, AND FIRE: VISIONS OF THE FUTURE FROM ASIA」
AWT Focus is a curated sales platform with a historical scope. Each year a guest curator is invited to experiment with new narratives of modern and contemporary art through works drawn from Art Week Tokyo’s participating galleries.
This year’s edition of AWT Focus is led by Mami Kataoka, one of Japan’s most accomplished curators. “Earth, Wind, and Fire: Visions of the Future from Asia” surveys Japanese contemporary art in relation to new practices in Asia and beyond. The exhibition is divided into four sections addressing the themes of cosmic structures; hand, body, and prayer; invisible forces; and natural cycles and ecosystems.
The 57 participating artists and groups hail from places as varied as Brazil, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Korea, Mexico, the Philippines, and Taiwan as well as Japan. Alongside 26 Japanese galleries, three international galleries—Kukje (Seoul), Silverlens (Manila/New York), and TKG+ (Taipei)—are contributing works to the exhibition.
