Group Exhibition by the Winners of the Setsuryosha Firenze Prize — “Kaze no Kai”
An exhibition by Kaze no Kai, a group formed by past winners of the Setsuryosha Firenze Prize, will be held this year.
I am honored to participate for the first time, following my receipt of the Grand Prize at the 23rd Firenze Prize Exhibition.
My contribution to this exhibition is a new painting titled Sonata of the Wind (91×91cm, 2025).
This exhibition will begin at the Setsuryosha Museum of Art in Niigata, and then travel to Akihabara UDX in Tokyo, and finally to the Accademia delle Arti del Disegno in Florence, Italy.
I sincerely hope you will have a chance to see it.
