Connecting, Deeping,and Expanding ART
As the world's social, economic, and political conditions have been undergoing drastic changes since the 21st century, the environment and values related to art and museums have grown increasingly diverse. Efforts to promote art are growing even more important as a means of creating a society that enables all people to encounter a wide range of perspectives, and experience richly nurturing ideas and emotions. While taking these global trends into account, the National Center for Art Research was established as a specialized organization – part of the Independent Administrative Institution National Museum of Art Secretariat, which functions as a new initiative for promoting art in Japan.
