A program of participatory workshops will be held. This program will combine “Seeing” Guided Tour with a guided tour of the venue and “Making” Workshop in which participants can actually work with their hands to create artworks together with artists.
Let’s Try Making “ZERO” Money
This is a workshop to make “ZERO” banknotes by artist Sawako Tanizawa, who actively uses papercutting as a method of expression.
The “ZERO” banknotes can be used at the “ZERO Shop” in the kids’ space.
Let’s think about what value means through physical experience in the art fair venue, which is also a place of economy.
Let’s “see, feel, and chat” at the Art Fair!
What is an art fair? What kind of artworks can we encounter?
Let’s discover new ways of “seeing” and “enjoying” artworks through interactive viewing, where everyone enjoys looking at artworks and chatting about what they think, feel, and discover. While navigating the venue with a guide staff member, we will take our time to appreciate the real artworks on display.

- Tanizawa Sawako
-
Tanizawa Sawako is an artist whose work focuses on the critical potential of papercutting, a medium that has been marginalized in Western male-centered art history, while also adopting themes based on imagination and fantasy that relate to the fundamental domains of life and sexuality, death, love, and pain. Major exhibitions include VOCA 2022: Prospects of Contemporary Art – Artists of the New Plane (The Ueno Royal Museum, Tokyo) and Culture City of East Asia 2017 Kyoto – Asia Corridor Contemporary Art Exhibition (Nijo Castle, Kyoto).

-
A research center attached to Kyoto University of the Arts, a research institute that explores the possibilities of art from various perspectives. It was established in April 2009 with Fuku Noriko as its first director, who was the first person to introduce the Visual Thinking Curriculum (VTC) developed at the Museum of Modern Art in New York to Japan. The interactive art education program ACOP (Art Communication Project) considers art communication in a broad sense, and approaches communication—the most important element for people to live with others—from the field of art to understand the nature of communication and how it can be nurtured.
