The Artist File is an ongoing series of contemporary art exhibitions that was launched when the National Art Center, Tokyo first opened. Artists are not chosen to fit in with any particular theme, rather they are selected from both Japan and abroad on the basis of interest and relevance, and their work is presented as a group of small solo shows in the exhibition space.

This exhibition, the fifth in the series, features eight artists including three from overseas. They are a diverse group both in terms of age (ranging from those in their 30s to their 60s) and in terms of media, including painting, photography, video, and installation. What ties them together is their dedication to their work, their will to earnestly confront social and personal issues, and their drive to explore the limitless possibilities of artistic expression. We sincerely hope that this exhibition will provide not only exciting encounters with the latest in contemporary art, but also an opportunity to turn a tranquil gaze upon the complex and fascinating world we live in today.

See website for details on artist talks.
