[Call for Participants] Fukasawa Art Institute Workshop Talk

On Sunday, October 18, we will host a talk event at the CANVAS office to explore the concept of “workshops.”
Our guest is Mr. Joseph Isamu Yamazoe of the Fukasawa Art Institute.
For nearly 20 years, since 1996, Mr. Yamazoe has continued to create spaces where his work as a contemporary artist and his workshops for children intertwine.

Since its inception, CANVAS has collaborated with Joseph Isamu Yamazoe to develop workshop programs centered on “artistic creation,” giving rise to countless scenes of “making” over the years.
Join Mr. Yamazoe and CANVAS for a talk event where we’ll look back on our past activities and reflect anew on the concept of “workshops”!
Anyone interested is warmly welcome. We look forward to seeing you there.
