「CURATION⇄FAIR Kyoto」to be held this autumn. Attention to the space where the architecture of three temples and artworks resonate.
The CURATION⇄FAIR Kyoto art fair returns this November, expanding to three historic temples in Kyoto’s Nishijin district.Summary
The CURATION⇄FAIR Kyoto art fair will take place from November 6 to 8 in Kyoto’s Nishijin area. This year’s edition expands the venue to three historic temples: Daihonzan Myōken‑ji, Hondan Hōhō‑ji, and Hondan Myōkaku‑ji. The fair aims to bridge academic art and the market while fostering long‑term value standards. Exhibitions will feature a curated selection of works ranging from antique crafts to modern and contemporary art, emphasizing the dialogue between the artworks and the temples’ accumulated history and spirituality. Unlike last year’s focus on the history and value of Japanese art, this year’s theme highlights the relationship between the works and their surrounding environment, offering visitors a holistic space where architecture, faith, and art resonate together.
