The AAB association and the Ōtawara Institute of Art Cultural Studies (Ōtawara, Japon), that is organizing the Nasunogahara International Arts Symposium, and directed by Kodai Hihara, have created an exchange project between artists from France and Japan.

 

On summer 2017, nine artists from AAB were invited in Ōtawara to take part to :

  • A three weeks residence, from july 30th to august 16th, in the Institute of Arts Cultural Studies : nine french artists will work with five japanese creators.
  • A post production exhibition, august 18th to 26th, on Nasunogahara harmony hall.
