New art space

Mizuma Art Gallery opened a second venue. The top space already has a sister gallery in Beijing. Where could they open their third venue? Shanghai? New York? No, they opened one in Ichigaya, Shinjuku. (You know, where you can go fishing in the Outer Moat.) Fear not, the gallery is not going to abandon its notoriously run-down (and no doubt cold) building in Nakameguro just yet; it will continue to operate as “Mizuma Action”, though they will be closing one of their floors at the end of the year.
