Within the next 10 years, Kyoto City University of Arts is planning to move to the Suujin Area, mere minutes from Kyoto Station. On one hand it is a place with many remaining cultural resources, but on the other, the area also bears the burden of critical social issues. Under these circumstances, KCUA’s move creates an important nucleus of community creation. Bringing together national and international artists, this exhibition seizes on the opportunity of being the ‘first step’ in the area for the university.
