How to apply the adhesive paper
About packaging of artwork
(both delivery and carry-in)
Packaging your artwork is important as it protects it and ensures that it arrives in your hands once the purchase is made.
Please make sure the packaging is easy to unpack and can be reused when packing again.
01
Prepare your artwork and pasting paper
Paste paper: 4 sheets or more
Please include your real name, artist name, and title. (Handwritten is acceptable.)
*Please be sure to attach the sticker to your artwork and packaging.
*The sticker will be removed when the exhibit is on display.
02
Stick the attachment paper on the back of the piece
Flat work
・For wall artwork, be sure to attach a hanging cord to the back of the artwork.
- If the hanging cord is not attached, installation equipment costs will be charged separately.
・Please remove glass. Acrylic panels are acceptable.
Solid work
If you are placing your work in an acrylic box or similar, please take measures to prevent it from collapsing.
★It seems that many people forget to bring the hanging cord.
Please make sure to attach the hanging cord as it is necessary for display.
03
Packing the work
We will provide the packaging materials.
If you are purchasing two or a series of works, please pack them so that the works do not touch each other.
*If you use boxes specifically for hanging scrolls or frames, we will handle the packaging for you.
04
Stick the sticker onto the packaging material
・Be careful not to damage the corners of picture frames, etc.
・Please place cushions or other items inside three-dimensional works.
・If you have equipment, please include it with your name.
・For works that require layout, please include the layout instructions in the package.
05
Attach the label to the exterior
Please tape all four corners securely to prevent peeling during shipping.
Large works (total of three sides is 250cm or more) and heavy works (20kg or more)
Please arrange for a company to handle the delivery (bringing in and unpacking) and removal (packing and returning) of your items yourself.
Shipping: Prepaid

*No vendor specified
・For heavy, special, sharp or complicated works, please arrange for exhibition staff to assist you.

★Examples of packaging that cannot be delivered
Packaging with only bubble wrap, as shown in the image, may cause damage during shipping or may not be able to be delivered depending on the shipping company. Please be sure to pack the item in a cardboard box.
