AMBIENT KYOTO, an exhibition based in Kyoto and composed of sound, art, and space under the theme of “ambient,” will be held in Tokyo for the first time from Friday, August 28 to Sunday, October 25, 2026. Set at Azabudai Hills Gallery in Minato-ku, Tokyo, this exhibition presents async - immersion, a work by Ryuichi Sakamoto + Shiro Takatani / Dumb Type, originally shown at AMBIENT KYOTO 2023. An overwhelming experience made possible by the luxury of a standalone installation using a massive 26.4-meter-wide screen, and a special work created through the integration of music, visuals, sound, space, and the audience. This will be the first opportunity since AMBIENT KYOTO 2023 to experience the work on the same scale. Sound director ZAK, known for his work on Ryuichi Sakamoto’s later works and also responsible for AMBIENT KYOTO 2023, will reconstruct the sound for the space of Azabudai Hills Gallery. Since its first edition in 2022, AMBIENT KYOTO has created new experiences through encounters between the everyday and the extraordinary, tradition and new culture, and people and the city. In 2026, experience the world of async - immersion with your whole body in Tokyo.
