Eighty-seven years after Iwataya’s Main Store opened, the first contemporary art exhibition, “Intro” CONTEMPORARY ART EXHIBITION, is being held. “Art can lead us to a better lifestyle. Touching the temperament and personality of an artist gives us energy for tomorrow.” Both young artists and masters from Japan and abroad will be exhibited and sold. The works include new woodblock prints by Tadanori Yokoo, works by BANKSY, MR. BRAINWASH, Kuniyoshi Kaneko, and upcycled paintings by Yohei Takahashi, who uses discarded paint.
