An apartment where foreigners once lived has been turned into a gallery!?
Sneak into an artistic space!
YOKOHAMA ART SPOT FILE
A small gallery in Yokohama Chinatown
AAA GALLERY
``AAA GALLERY'' is located between Yokohama Chinatown, which is crowded with many tourists, and Yamashita Park, which overlooks the sea.
This is an installation view of Hitomi Maruyama's solo exhibition ``Hitomi no Naka''.
``The walls of the room are all white.The appeal of this gallery is that it changes into a variety of spaces according to the artist's work image and the concept of the exhibition.You can also come up with your own decorations other than the works, and the artist himself "I'm grateful to be able to produce an entire room. The room itself becomes a canvas and becomes my own work!", says Hitomi Maruyama, the artist whose work I introduced above.
One of the charms of this gallery is that you can casually visit the gallery and talk with the artists in the gallery while looking at their works in a homely atmosphere.
By the way, let me ask you about another unique thing about this gallery!
Depending on the artist's wishes and the exhibition concept, even the toilet can be turned into an exhibition space!! (On the day of the interview, it was a regular toilet! Lol)
If the artist wishes, a merchandise corner can also be set up.
Also, depending on the artist, original menus such as cafes and sweets may be sold to match the works on display.
When I went for the interview, I also saw Maruyama-san's "Maru-chan special watermelon-style shaved ice" that appeared earlier! Furthermore, in the room near the entrance, there was also a "Beloved Pants Exhibition" by 8 artists, so I also visited By the way, there was also a menu posted for something called ``Anoko's ♡ Panties Cake''.
In addition, customers can also use the outdoor terrace seating as a common space in this building.
From now on, the wind is pleasant. It's a great place to take a breather after viewing the works!
