Decameron

Decameron opened in 2020 in the center of Shinjuku Kabukicho. The exhibition space on the second floor mainly hosts exhibitions featuring young and mid-career artists from Japan and abroad. The community space on the first floor provides a place for interaction before and after viewing. In addition to the concepts/statements that each artist puts forward in the exhibition, Decameron has a theme for the year, and we are currently implementing a project focusing on the perspective of "evaluation." In addition, we are always conscious of ``management'' and aim to ``collaborate'' not only with artists but also with viewers. [Director Kiyoshi Kurotaki] Born in 1986.
