About Kumi Contemporary

Kumi literally means ‘everlasting beauty’

Japanese art has a certain sensibility to it - varying from daintily intricate and innocent to the outrageously sexual and shocking.

Japanese post-modern art is thriving. Takashi Murakami’s Superflat movement has paved the way for a newer generation of young artists. Borrowing influences from pop culture, commercialism and eroticism, Japanese contemporary art is fast becoming one of the most collected in the world.

With exhibitions across the globe - New York, LA, London and beyond, Japanese art is transcending its once very private space in Japan and is finding root in Western Culture.

Kumi Contemporary was conceived in 2008. Since then we have been working tirelessly, setting up relationships with some of the most established artists and galleries in Japan.

Kumi contemporary operates on the secondary art market. Signed and numbered limted edition, and original artworks for sale from some of the most forward thinking and innovative artists in the Japanese art scene: Yoshitomo Nara, Chiho Aoshima, Ai Yamachuchi, Aiko Nakagawa, Mr, Hush Artist, and the Godfather of Japanese art Takashi Murakami, available in the UK and Worldwide.
