Summary
The Shiga Museum of Art is launching a new exhibition series titled "ASK Shiga Museum of Art Project: Contemporary Art Exhibition in Kohoku," which will invite artists to the Kohoku region (Takashima, Maibara, and Nagahama) over three years. "ASK" stands for "Art Spot in Kohoku" and also implies questioning the viewer. The first installment will take place in the Omizo area of Takashima City, a historic port town.
