Business Overview
Interdisciplinary art is art that is not bound by genre and cannot be classified into categories because it crosses disciplines. While focusing on their respective genres of theater, video, music, puppet theater, etc., artists who engage in cross-cutting expression activities will compete in various places in Tokyo and Taiwan. IAFT15/16 was held in various places in Tokyo from September 2015 to March 2016. It was well received, and in August 2016 it was decided that the film and art performance would be held at OSMOSIS Fest in Taiwan. In autumn 2016, a presentation meeting will be held in Tokyo. The contents of the program will be updated on the website as needed.

Profile
【Interdisciplinary Art Festival Tokyo】
From the perspective of interdisciplinary art, this festival was established in 2014 in order to break down the current situation in which places for presentation and audiences are fixed, discover artists who work without depending on genre, and create new audiences and values. The purpose of this festival is to create new value and connect people by creating an art festival that is more dynamic and in line with the modern society, and by promoting artists who express themselves across various genres, such as not being a play, not being a live music performance, and not being limited to film screenings.
