I can buy Japanese art! What is the Tanabata Bid Committee?
The Tanabata Bid Association is a matching service that bridges the people who want to buy Japanese art and those who want to sell Japanese art from Kyobashi's old art gallery "Kashima Art" and "Waifu". We recruited works from the general public, and the number of works collected from all over Japan was about 250 points! After Kashima Art performs a prescribed screening of these works of art, a minimum bid price can be set, and after the general public participates in the preview meeting, it is possible to bid on the desired price for purchase.
Close to the real thing! Preliminary meeting starts from July 20
Preliminary visit is from July 20 (Thu) to 26 (Wed). Kashima Art at the venue is closed on Sundays, but it seems to be open on weekends. If you are busy on weekdays ... please come on weekends!
Not only paintings such as hanging scrolls, various works such as pottery, crafts and kimonos are exhibited. At Kashima Art, you can directly view the work without going through the glass case, so you can thoroughly enjoy the details of the brushstrokes and the texture of the work that you can not usually see in the distance.
The work of that Ito Wakatsuki too!
Two works of the artist who was active in the Edo period, Ito Wakatsuki also exhibited. "鯉" is the first display in the hall. The bold and powerful composition has become an item of interest. 
I drew it when Ikuichi Tanaka was a teenager! ?
Tanaka Ichimura is a Japanese painter who loves Amami Oshima nature and has won various awards since his youth. A work "Citrus summer ripening" said to have been drawn by such a village as a teenager. Refreshing citrus is perfect for the current season! 
Handicrafts of Sasayamahito and Sakai Homiichi are lined up
There are small and lovely sake and tea bowls. You can buy the work of the gastronomical artist and great artist, Mr. Sasayama at such a price ... Would you like to add color to your life with the finest vessels? 
The sleeve weaving human national treasure Fumura Shimura's work is also 24 points!
The works of Fukumi Shimura, dyed with plant dyes and woven with silk cocoon yarn, say “beautiful”. The sleeve that does not fade away even after decades of work is the work number 1 that you want to see the real thing.
