This is a festival of art, dance, and food, born out of an idea-thon conducted by high school students. It is designed to coincide with Roppongi Art Night, and is produced mainly by high school students (Hiroo Gakuen and Tokyo Metropolitan Roppongi High School)
The Art Section of “ROKU FES” presents the artworks created by contemporary artists in collaboration with elementary, junior high and high school students in Minato Ward. a workshop to think about the topography and history of Minato Ward.
Contemporary artist Aki Yamamoto, together with volunteer students from Azabu Elementary School and Roppongi Junior High School produced this work this summer. It was made after workshops to think about the topography and history of the Minato Ward. The students created each piece, hoping to convey the current Azabu/Roppongi to the first-time visitors, future visitors, and people from overseas, and to leave a legacy for the future. Yamamoto then put all of them together and completed them as a 10m wide Sugoroku (Japanese board games). This large-scale work will preserve the students' interest in the present, for the future.
* This work was produced with a grant from the Agency for Cultural Affairs as part of the “Land Utilizing Art Project” being implemented by Mori Building Company and Mori Art Museum.
