The Tokyo Metropolitan Government has launched an art project called "TOKYO CITY CANVAS," which uses temporary enclosures at construction sites as canvases to expand the landscape of art in the city.
This grant is part of the "TOKYO CITY CANVAS" program, and supports part of the costs of art projects that create new urban landscapes by creating attractive spaces through art using temporary enclosures at construction sites in the city of Tokyo. By supporting private-sector activities, we will create an environment where everyone can enjoy art in close proximity and create new attractions for cities.
