Community Engagement Program “Art Camp for under 22, Vol. 8 Connecting Works and People and People” (Three-day Program)
Conducted in Japanese
The eighth “Art Camp for under 22” will focus mainly on imagining others through the viewing of artworks in the Listen to the Sound of the Earth Turning exhibition, which takes as its theme the “art of living well” in these pandemic times .Everyone desires to live as their authentic self, and everyone has the right to cultural enjoyment. On the first day of the program, we will consider and discuss the relationship between art and wellbeing. On the second day, participants will try to imagine the best way to describe the attractions of viewing art to a friend next to them, and put it into practice. The third and final day will be about applying the lessons of the previous two, by giving Art Camp participants the chance to introduce exhibitions and works in their own words to people on the Mori Art Museum Access Online Program “Art Online.” This “Art Camp” over three sessions will involve thinking in your own words, and imagining someone else beside you.

About “Art Camp”
Over the years, Mori Building Company and the Mori Art Museum have collaborated with artists from across the globe to run a variety of programs at the Museum and out on the streets. Summer 2018 saw the launch of a new “Art Camp” program targeting younger art-lovers aged 15 to 22; giving them the opportunity to discuss “contemporary art” with artists and curators in a different environment from the usual school format of “teacher” and “taught,” employing the Museum and entire Roppongi Hills neighborhood as a canvas. Talking with others encourages participants to think about current happenings at home or school, historical events, social, political and cultural developments in the wider world, and the connection of all these with contemporary art, helping them to explore interesting and enjoyable aspects of contemporary art.
