Observer’s Guide to Tokyo’s Best Art Galleries
Many people are deeply fascinated by Japan’s timeless culture, harmonious spirituality and delicious food. Fewer are fans of the country’s vibrant contemporary arts scene, if only because its evolving and increasingly international gallery scene is relatively young. After years of regional closure, Japan seems to finally be opening up and trying to catch up with the incredible development shown by the Korean art scene on the global stage. The second edition of Tokyo Gendai opens for VIPs on the fourth, and lately, more and more galleries have been opening in the Japanese capital, with a new international presence. Observer’s guide to Tokyo’s gallery clusters and art spaces can help you identify which of them you should keep on your radar.

Three in five small UK museums and galleries fear closure amid declining revenue, new research suggests
Three in five small museums and galleries in the UK fear closure amid declining revenue and footfall, research published this week suggests. The survey of 40 small, independent attractions—those with fewer than 100,000 annual visitors—also found that four in five (78%) reported the current period as the most challenging the sector has faced, while over half (58%) said overall income has not returned to its pre-Covid levels.
The research, conducted by the cloud platform GoDaddy in partnership with the charity Kids in Museums, surveyed small museums as well as galleries, historic buildings and heritage sites. Alison Bowyers, the executive director of Kids in Museums, tells The Art Newspaper that UK museums are suffering more than their counterparts in mainland Europe.
