Gallery Kasagi is now pleased to announce that Ms. Kazuko Irie and other 24 greatest female artists in Japan will hold a joint exhibition in New York.

This spectacle will be organized as a nonprofit event with the cooperation of the Japanese Consulate General and “The Nippon Club” which was established to facilitate a cultural exchange between two countries.

Since it will be showcased by unique artists, with nothing in common but their gender, who are working for different academies, we believe that it will be rich both in variety and interest.

Supported by Consulate general of Japan in New York
