We are excited to share that Art to Live is hosting a variety of programs designed to explore, learn about, and enjoy the works and expressions of artists with disabilities.
On November 30th, we held a special symposium at Kyoto City University of Arts, where we explored the global movement to introduce the works of artists with disabilities as contemporary art. Our guest speaker was Tom di Maria, and we also hosted a panel discussion featuring key figures from Japan’s art world who are actively engaged on an international level.
