AP Donou
AP (Art Plaza) Donou is an artist-run space based in Toride City, Ibaraki Prefecture. Since the space was flooded by heavy rains three days after it was rented, sandbag (donou in Japanese ) has been placed at the entrance. The artists who operate AP Donou often get their creative inspiration from the “suburbs,” and the space has the essence of the “suburbs” within it. Rather than a white cube with a certain stability, we will work with the artists to create an exhibition in which the specificity of the space and their works coexist. We aim to create a new context for art, and plan exhibitions that are not bound by existing axes of evaluation. Takao Kiyama, Yusuke Muroi, Ian Mori
