LURF GALLERY will be holding an art exhibition called "WAVE 2025."
"WAVE" is a large-scale exhibition that transcends the realms of fine art, graphic art, and illustration, planned and curated by Kintaro Takahashi and Hiro Sugiyama, and has been running since 2018. Between 2021 and 2023, it traveled to Los Angeles, Sao Paulo, and London, attracting a record-breaking total of over 170,000 visitors and conveying the current state and creativity of Japan's art scene.
This exhibition, the seventh in Japan, is divided into two parts: the first half "WAVE BLUE" and the second half "WAVE YELLOW," and will feature works by a total of 47 artists, ranging from well-known artists active both in Japan and abroad to up-and-coming talented artists. Enjoy works that predict the future of Japan's art scene.
