The Yebisu International Festival for Art & Alternative Visions seeks to stimulate creative activities in visual expression and to encourage dialogue among a variety of genres, and ensures that outstanding examples of visual expression are passed on from past to present and on to the future. The twelfth festival will explore the essence of visual expression. From exhibitions and screenings to YEBIZO MEETS, a program for participants to encounter, enjoy, and ponder visual expression, this festival is rich in opportunities for new visions and discoveries.
