STATEMENTby the curator of ART COLLECTION EXHIBITION 2018

Yuji Akimoto (Director and Professor of THE UNIVERSITY ART MUSEUM, TOKYO UNIVERSITY OF THE ARTS/ Director of NERIMA ART MUSEUM)

This year, “ART COLLECTION EXHIBITION” presented by Warehouse TERRADA celebrates its fifth anniversary. On each occasion, these exhibitions present a broad diversity of creatively selected works to entertain and delight art lovers—and each exhibition is curated from a small number of private collections. Each exhibition is distinguished for taking a unique perspective as its through-line and for showcasing works that exude the sincere love collectors feel for them.
I believe that, for art collectors, Warehouse TERRADA’s comprehensive art services, coupled with their affection toward each artwork, inspires the utmost trust. And their sustained commitment in this area earned Warehouse TERRADA "The Montblanc de la Culture Arts Patronage Award” (established by the Montblanc Cultural Foundation in 1992), which honors patrons of arts and culture around the world—this being the first time the award has gone to a company in Japan. Without doubt, this award will inspire Warehouse TERRADA to continue striving for higher excellence in the services they provide.
