March 28th (Sat) – May 10th (Sun) 2026 at Ueno Geidai Art Plaza (free admission)<\/strong><\/p>\n Geidai Art Plaza ( https:\/\/artplaza.geidai.ac.jp\/<\/a> ) is a gallery operated on the campus of Tokyo University of the Arts' Faculty of Fine Arts (Ueno, Taito Ward) as a collaborative project between Shogakukan and Tokyo University of the Arts. From Saturday, March 28, 2026, they will be holding a special exhibition titled "Energy: What is Energy?" The exhibition will be themed around "energy," and will feature new works by 11 artists affiliated with or alumni of Tokyo University of the Arts. Admission is free, and photography is permitted.<\/p>\n The special exhibition "Energy" is themed around energy in a broad sense, including invisible "force," "presence," and "heat." The exhibition features new works by 11 artists affiliated with or alumni of Tokyo University of the Arts, creating a space where the presence of energy can be visualized and experienced through sight, space, and the body. "Energy" is something we come into contact with every day but rarely pay attention to, but through art it allows viewers to reinterpret it sensorily and intuitively, offering an opportunity to ask themselves, "What does energy mean to me?"<\/p>\n ***********************************<\/p>\n Special exhibition announcement page<\/strong> ***********************************<\/p>\n \u25a0 Exhibition Overview<\/strong> *Business hours may change.
