A PLACE FOR YOUR PROGRAM

Begin with the purpose
of your place.

From an exhibition of artworks to a wider program with artist conversations, we welcome enquiries from the planning stage.

01 / MUSEUMS & CULTURAL VENUES

Museums, galleries and cultural venues

Combine an exhibition with artist talks or an experience of sound. Introduce Japanese expressions of prayer alongside contemporary art that contemplates life.

02 / LOCAL GOVERNMENTS & COMMUNITIES

Local cultural programs

Create time for art and conversation in a cultural venue or community gathering. Offer an opportunity to consider life and our connection with ourselves and others.

03 / INTERNATIONAL EVENTS

International events and cultural exchange

For exhibitions, cultural exchange and conferences introducing Japanese culture and art. We discuss content and presentation in relation to the country, venue and audience.

ART, DIALOGUE & RESONANCE

An exhibition becomes
an experience.

These forms of expression can be brought together as needed. A program can include all of them or begin with a selection.

ART EXHIBITION

Encounter the artworks

Works in bonji, mandalas and life photography. We discuss the selection and arrangement of works in relation to the character and exhibition conditions of your venue.

ARTIST TALK & DIALOGUE

Share the questions

Talks on Kūkai’s wisdom, life and our sense of worth in the age of AI, through the artists’ perspective. Conversations with other speakers or participants can be included.

SOUND, FILM & STILLNESS

Experience resonance

Live voice and music, film, meditation or a quiet interval. We shape these elements around the purpose of the program and the venue’s sound and screening conditions.

SELECTED RECORDS

From sacred places to global encounters.

Selected records of our exhibitions and programs: encounters between places, artworks and people.
