thanks

Those are some great suggestions. I hope people will begin buying are more for those reasons, rather than viewing them solely as investments. Happy Holidays!

Love the piece by Takako Sato — does she have a website?

I like Geisai and found two of our artists there–that seems to work best for us. Will fo to Design Exposition at Tokyo Midtown soon, not so much to find new artists as much as to see beautiful works.
I applaud these other efforts-it gets people interested in art and artists and they are very accessible, unlike some galleries.

Do you ever make it out to DesignFesta out in Odaiba? I usually go. It reminds me that young Japanese people are absolutely motivated to express themselves artistically – in fact they are very motivated to do so – but don’t seem to have too many forums accessible to them (?) Or am I not finding them? A shame really because DesignFesta is quite popular and well-known – it’s good for what it is but I’d love to see more such events that cover a greater range of Japanese artists…something in between an art fair and a museum exhibition (NACT’s yearly Artists’ File exhibit is also one of my faves but very different from DesignFesta, or say the Artbeat/Superdeluxe events…) Thoughts?
