I visited the 48th Annual Joint Graduation and Completion Exhibition of Tokyo's Five Art Universities in 2024, commonly known as the "Go-Bijutsu University Exhibition" or "Gobi Exhibition."
This is a collaborative graduation and completion exhibition of five art universities in Tokyo: Tokyo Zokei University, Nihon University College of Art, Musashino Art University, Tama Art University, and Joshibi University of Art and Design.
It was held at the National Art Center in Roppongi, with each university having its own designated exhibition space.
The venue was filled with diverse artistic expressions, each work showcasing its unique personality.
The photo captures just a glimpse of the exhibition, featuring serene landscapes, fantastical still lifes, and highly expressive works, each reflecting the perspective of its creator.
While observing the artworks, I found it fascinating not only to appreciate the technical mastery but also to consider how the artists conveyed their thoughts and themes.
Each university's distinct character was also evident, reflecting their educational philosophies and the tendencies of their students.
This annual exhibition is a valuable opportunity to experience fresh expressions from emerging artists. If you have the chance, I highly recommend visiting.
