Call for submissions for the International Open Exhibition
Gold exhibition #3
The concept of gold
The Color Series has become an annual tradition, starting with the "#Blue" exhibition, and has featured a variety of colors as its theme. This exhibition focuses on the colors we see in our daily lives. We look forward to seeing each artist's image of gold.
410Gallery
"Enjoy art"
410Gallery brings together a diverse range of artists, both professional and amateur, to create exhibitions that transcend genres and experiences, creating a rich interplay of expression and mutual stimulation. It is a place where participants can meet art fans, expand their own possibilities, and discover new ideas and experiences.
Exhibition Venue
Kamikawabata-cho, Hakata Ward, in the heart of Fukuoka City, Fukuoka Prefecture, is a historic area that has flourished through trade and festivals. 410 Gallery is located in Kawabata Shopping Arcade, a two-minute walk from the Fukuoka Asian Art Museum, on the fourth floor of a 50-year-old vintage building. The gallery is based on the concept of being "a space created solely for the purpose of displaying artworks."
