The Opening of “Promising Young Artists Exhibition – Enjoy Your Stories” at Pola Museum Annex

I checked out this year’s Pola “Promising Young Artists” exhibition – now in its fourth year – which showcases the work of Shuna Araki and Yuko Murata, who were chosen by Tsunehiro Nishimatsu, former producer of NHK’s Shin Nichiyo Bijutsukan.
