This is the second edition of the experimental exhibition of contemporary art “Perspectives”. As forms of expression in contemporary art grow ever more diverse, with the help of large-scale exhibitions and information technology such as social media, it is now possible to gather information on contemporary art from various regions in the world. As artists extend the scope of their activities to an international level, social factors and regional singularities exert a certain influence on the concepts behind their creations, as well as on the choice of materials for their works. Regional singularities also appear in such non-verbal parameters such as the apprehension of space, colors, or forms.

Following the first edition devoted to the contemporaneity of Japanese artists, this second edition of “Perspectives” focuses on the social backgrounds and regional particularities behind the diverse forms of expression found in contemporary art. By combining artists whose work is based on traditional techniques, with artists who have created outside of Japan, we will focus on the differentiation of sensitivity depending on regions and personal experiences, as well as on the regional particularities in artistic expression. The aim is to consider the possibility for contemporary art to build a common form of consciousness, a common vector on an international level, such as in the academic world.
