Fukuoka Art Fair Simulation Alpha




Now I am directing a kind of art project named [Fukuoka Art Fair Simulation Alpha] at Fukuoka Prefectural Museum of Art.
See detail on the website: http://fafa2007.blogspot.com/


Fukuoka Prefectural Museum and Fukuoka Art Fair Simulation Alpha Committee will hold a new collaborative project, Fukuoka Art Fair Simulation Alpha 2007 (fafa2007). Fukuoka has been recognized for its active grassroots art scene supported by local independent/alternative art space and art NPOs.
[fafa2007] seeks to introduce art space and artist based in Kyushu area as well as other part of Japan and Asia, and further develop network among participants.
We would like [fafa2007] to be an opportunity for creating network among art spaces and discussing the possibility of developing a new local economic system for art.
Hopefully, [fafa2007] could be the first step toward more sophisticated form of art fair in near future.

Gallery Artlier has moved into B1 fl. from B2 fl. in HAKATA RIVERAIN BLD., 'cause of a department store Izutsuya's renewal.
Since June to September, the Gallery Artlier stays in this floor as smaller space, then will move again into B2 with larger space. (real?)

My boss Yamano suddenly quit the job of director of this gallery, then I have been the director since June 1st, 2007.
