Singapore and Japanese Artists’ Dialogue with Their Cities is organized by the AQA Project and administered by a team of students from the department of aesthetics and art history at the School of Letters of Kyushu University. This exhibition received the support of the Fukuoka City Foundation for Arts and Culture Promotion (FFAC) as the exhibition aims to introduce cutting edge and experimental works in Singaporean and Japanese contemporary art scenes to Fukuoka citizens. The artworks were chosen based on this year’s exhibition theme. This exhibition is also a part of an outreach initiative of Social Cooperation of the School of Letters, Kyushu University.

This exhibition was co-curated by Seng Yu Jin, who teaches in the MA Asian Art Histories Programme at LASALLE College of the Arts
