Tokyo is preparing to host Art Fair Tokyo once again, bringing together 139 Japanese and international galleries from March 6 to 9, 2025. This 19ᵉ edition has a special flavor: it marks the event's 20th anniversary and promises to be richer than ever, with expanded exhibition spaces and an even more diverse program.
Art Fair Tokyo 2025: an anniversary edition full of promise
Housed in the prestigious Tokyo International Forum, the fair takes visitors on a journey through time and style, blending ancient and contemporary art, Japanese traditions and international avant-gardes. With its three sections - Gallery, Crossing and Projects - it showcases both established artists and emerging talents. A must for collectors, curators and art lovers alike.
More space, more encounters
This year, galleries will have a larger exhibition area, encouraging more daring stagings and greater interaction with the public. Far from being a mere commercial fair, Art Fair Tokyo asserts its role as a place of exchange, where art is lived and shared, arousing emotions and reflections.
The show will feature prestigious names such as Perrotin Tokyo, Kaikai Kiki Gallery and ShugoArts, alongside young galleries from Seoul, Paris and New York. A mix of influences that reflects the diversity of the art market, while highlighting the high standards and refinement of the Japanese scene.
Between know-how and innovation
The 2025 edition also puts the spotlight on arts and crafts, with galleries dedicated to ceramics, textiles and traditional skills. Far from being stuck in the past, these practices interact with contemporary and technological approaches, showing that tradition and innovation often go hand in hand.
The Projects section also promises surprises, with immersive installations, performances and experimental creations, offering visitors a more sensory and interactive experience.
An event that goes beyond the fairgrounds
The whole city vibrates to the rhythm of the event, from the galleries of Ginza to the museums of Roppongi. Tokyo is an open-air art scene, where art can be discovered as much in the institutions as in the energy of the neighborhoods.
With this anniversary edition, Art Fair Tokyo 19 promises a total immersion in contemporary creativity. A not-to-be-missed event for discovering the richness and vitality of the Japanese and international art scene.
