MEET YOUR ART FESTIVAL 2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Japan’s Largest Art Festival
Four days where art and culture intersect, stimulating your senses.<\/h5>\n\n\n\n
Art exhibition “REFLUX: Rising Signs” <\/h5>\n\n\n\n

\n

The art exhibition “REFLUX: Rising Signs,” which embodies the festival’s concept, focuses on the reversals, reactions, and intersections of multiple currents that emerge in our ever-accelerating times. Using “REFLUX,” meaning reverse current or reversal, as a starting point for understanding this situation, the exhibition explores how we can grasp this era by looking at various reverse currents and reversals that cannot be fully described by words such as development, progress, and future. Subtle changes that precede the resulting events. The ability to read these signs has long been ingrained in us, intertwined with our lives. Let us re-examine them once again. Sensations, atmospheres, and omens that precede words. This exhibition is held as a space where diverse possibilities emerge and intersect.
