About SHUKADO+SCENA.
Since 2003,we have been running a gallery in Ginza called Shukado, which deals in antique, modern, and contemporary Japanese art. Around 2010, he started to deal in contemporary art, and in 2022, we opened GALLERY SCENA. in Harajuku, Tokyo as a gallery specializing in contemporary art. SCENA means “stage” in Latin, but it can also be used to describe a “scene” in a movie or play. It means a place where artists and collectors take the leading roles in creating drama. But there is another important meaning. In today’s Japan, young people rarely interact with each other enthusiastically, but for the essential development of art, a strong exchange is indispensable. Therefore, this gallery is also meant to be a “stage” where various artists and art lovers can interact deeply.
