3331 ART FAIR 2018
“3331 ART FAIR 2018,” a satellite program of Art Fair Tokyo 2018. It is a program built mainly around young artists who look set to break through in the years ahead. I visited on the opening day and found it thronging with visitors.
3331 ART FAIR draws out the diverse visions of our contemporaries who shape the art scene, creating new gateways and relationships to contemporary art. It is a challenge to build an alternative art fair framework that questions “artistic quality and marketability.” Both the “creative activity” and the “works” that artists give shape to—we evaluate the artistic value residing in each as social and economic value, aiming to expand our art market. The long-awaited 3331 ART FAIR, held in March 2018, turns the entire facility—the main gallery, gymnasium, classroom areas, rooftop, and more—into a single expanse of the fair. As edge & fresh artists gather from across the country, we warmly invite you to attend.

As of the opening day, red dots had been placed on all but one work. Six pieces in all were on show this time. He appears to be based in London these days and seems to be a popular artist.
Each work rendered the same motif in a variety of colors and techniques.
Gaze at them for a while and you realize the artist commands formidable drawing skill.
He used two kinds of support—canvas and board—depending on the work.
Each work was priced at 64,800 yen (tax included).
They were small works, measuring 13cm×25cm.
