Program

Discuss
Considering the”selling” of an art project

Art projects create new perspectives and places in the everyday life of a community by taking place locally and involving a variety of people. The art project format necessitates a new way of generating money which is not through the sale of works, admission fees, etc. What sort of possibilities exist for the relationship between art projects and money in future? Together with two guests working in art project management at the director level, we discuss specific money-related examples and prospects for the future.

Date/time: Friday, March 9 19:00 — 21:00
Capacity: 30
Guests:
Ryoichi Kiyomiya (President, VINYLSOYUZ LLC/ President, Topping East (NPO))
Akio Hayashi (President and Managing Director, InVisible (NPO))
Interviewer: Tsukasa Mori (Director, Tokyo Artpoint Project)
