Terrada Warehouse Co., Ltd. will hold “My Collection 2018” at “T-ART HALL” in Tennozu, Tokyo, from November 29 through December 9, 2018.
Running continuously since 2015, “My Collection” is an exhibition that presents a portion of the collections of users of Terrada Warehouse’s fine-art storage service.
The fifth edition curates from the personal collections of prominent figures across various fields — including the world-renowned Sadaharu Oh and the musician Fumiya Fujii — bringing together works by leading contemporary artists such as Sebastian Masuda, Tomoo Gokita, Kunihiko Nohara and Andy Warhol, for what promises to be an exceptionally varied lineup.
Collection exhibitions have felt especially frequent of late, but this one — organized by Terrada Warehouse, a specialist in the professional storage of art — has all the hallmarks of a truly notable gathering of masterworks. Something to look forward to!

Terrada Warehouse’s “My Collection” reaches its fifth edition with this show. Every time, the works — richly varied and chosen from strikingly individual perspectives — have delighted art fans and provided a real sense of ease, and it never ceases to surprise that the whole is drawn from the holdings of just a handful of collectors. What they share is not only a personal viewpoint in each selection but a deep affection for the works themselves. For a collector, the comprehensive care Terrada Warehouse extends to art — handling important pieces with the same affection as their owners — is worthy of full trust.
Reflecting that stance, Terrada Warehouse became the first Japanese corporate entity to receive the “Montblanc de la Culture Arts Patronage Award” (established in 1992 by the Montblanc Cultural Foundation and awarded to patrons supporting the arts). With this recognition, Terrada Warehouse’s services are sure to attain an even higher standard.
