2025 LONDON UNIT PROGRAM This July, seven TUA students (five from GAP, one from IMA, and one from Design) traveled to London to participate in a joint Unit program with the MA Intercultural Practices course at Central Saint Martins, UAL. Over the two-week residential, they explored the city, exchanged insights through workshops and seminars, and visited museums, artist residencies, and public projects together. The program centered on the question: “How is interculturality practiced by cities, and how can civic interculturality inform our individual and collective practices of interculturality in the arts—and vice versa?” Highlights: Pic. 1~3: Workshop with Iswanto Hartono and Sourabh Phadke Pic. 4~5: Workshop with Yoi Kawakubo #gap #geidai #tua #東京藝術大学 #グローバルアートプラクティス #globalartpractice #ual #ualcentralsaintmartins #csm #maip #mainterculturalpractices #london 24分前

It offers students a tangible way to engage in practice-based inquiry—foregrounding food as a space of intercultural encounter, care, and co-learning within an urban context. #gap #geidai #tua #東京藝術大学 #グローバルアートプラクティス #globalartpractice #ual #ualcentralsaintmartins #csm #maip #mainterculturalpractices #london

Every year, an alumnus from GAP or another department at Tokyo University of the Arts participates in The Studio Nextdoor (となりのスタジオ) — a collaborative project between the university, the city, and an art NPO. Working together with artists and students from Sanno Elementary School in Toride, the project aims to nurture each child’s unique sensibility and to encourage flexible thinking and perspective toward future society. This year, Zhang Shengyang (Sam), who graduated from GAP this March, joined the project as a collaborating artist. Under the theme “Growing Chairs”, the children let their imaginations run free to design their own chairs. Using old, unused chairs and eco-friendly materials, they worked together to “grow” these creations within each classroom. An Open Studio will be held at Sanno Elementary School on Saturday, the 12th, where you can see the finished chairs as well as the creative process behind them. *If you would like to visit the Open Studio, please contact the Toride Art Project in advance.
