gallery UG is pleased to participate in “ART 365 galleries,” to be held at Daimaru Tokyo from August 19th (Wed) to August 25th (Tue), 2026.
From gallery UG, works by three artists—Ryosuke KAWAHIRA, Keitoku TOIZUMI, and Kunihiko NOHARA—will be exhibited.
"ART 365"
Fourteen leading galleries from across Japan, together with projects introducing Asian art, come together on an impressive scale.
The exhibition features a wide range of artists, from internationally acclaimed contemporary figures with distinctive styles to promising emerging talents expected to shape the future of the art scene.
With paintings, sculptures, and works in diverse genres and materials, the exhibition presents vibrant, original worlds created through unique sensibilities.
Alongside rare works that are difficult to acquire, the exhibition also offers many pieces suitable for casual display in homes or offices.
We invite you to fully enjoy this special opportunity to experience art.
gallery UG is pleased to announce that our represented artist, Ryosuke Kawahira, will be participating in the “ART OF MIKU – Taipei Exhibition –,” opening on Saturday, August 1, 2026.
Ryosuke Kawahira's works will be exhibited only during the First Stage of the exhibition.
“ART OF MIKU” is a project in which contemporary artists engage with the appeal and potential of the Piapro Characters—centered around the virtual singer Hatsune Miku—and present new expressions through contemporary art.
Transcending the boundaries of music and character culture, Hatsune Miku has been loved across generations, genres, and borders. Her presence, along with the culture of “co-creation,” continues to inspire many artists. Each artist presents their own interpretation of Hatsune Miku through diverse media, including painting, sculpture, video, and digital expression.
As this exhibition will feature the largest number of works to date, “ART OF MIKU – Taipei Exhibition –” will be held in two phases: the First Stage and the Second Stage.
If you happen to be in Taipei, we warmly invite you to visit.

"Connecting artworks to people, connecting people to each other through art."
galleryUG are always there for our artists.
We will grow together with the artists and support them from production to promotion.
We aim to further enrich and expand the contemporary art scene by proposing the ideal way for galleries to be.
I express visions inspired by ordinary daily life, where animals happily coexist and warm feelings of nostalgia prevail. I hope viewers will cherish their imagination, which is often overlooked in today's fast-paced world, and the time they spend relaxing. Through my work, I encourage them to freely imagine the stories that lie beyond the artwork.
In moments when I feel like I’m in a place independent of my surroundings,
I sometimes feel like I’m in a different time and space.
The feeling is like clouds or smoke that change shape with no regard for time
that people have to live by, and it also feels like a space of my own.
To turn, various scenes that came up in my imagination from things I encountered.
To express freedom, time and desires that are on the verge of being discarded from memory.
That is what is important, in order for me to be me and for a person to be them self.
