This year’s edition welcomes 141 participating galleries from Japan and abroad, including 10 new exhibitors. The lineup comprises 75 contemporary art galleries, 25 modern art galleries, 17 galleries specializing in antiques, and 13 dedicated to crafts. In addition, four international galleries will join the fair, along with seven exhibitors—including institutions such as the Ishikawa Prefectural Wajima Institute of Lacquer Art—that do not fall within conventional gallery categories.

Returning for the first time in two years, LEESAYA will participate alongside leading contemporary art galleries in Japan, including Tomio Koyama Gallery, ShugoArts, Kaikai Kiki Gallery, and TARO NASU, all of which continue their involvement from the previous edition. The fair will also feature exhibitors from the fields of modern art, antiques, and craft, expanding the diversity of the overall program.

ART FAIR TOKYO 20 will further develop FILMS, the section introduced last year that focuses on moving-image works, presenting a new edition for this year’s fair. By strengthening the overall structure of the program, the section aims not only to provide opportunities to view moving-image works, but also to explore the history of the medium and the broader environment surrounding it. Through these initiatives, ART FAIR TOKYO seeks to encourage collectors in Japan to consider moving-image works as viable acquisitions, thereby broadening the scope of collecting and fostering greater recognition of the medium and its practitioners within the domestic art market.

We will feature artist Tatsuo Miyajima's work Counter Skin in Hiroshima-3 gold as its main visual.
