From 29 January to 26 April 2026, la Galerie du 19M presents Beyond our Horizons: from Tokyo to Paris. Following an initial instalment focusing on the exhibition’s origins in Tokyo, this second chapter marks the exhibition’s return to Paris in a version reimagined for a new venue and a new audience.
A shift in scale and perspective: some works remain in Japan, while others are introduced for the first time, and some ten new artists enrich the dialogue between artistic craft and the Japanese and French contemporary art scenes.
In this episode, we follow this transformation alongside Aska Yamashita, artistic director of Atelier Montex and a member of the editorial committee. An opportunity to explore the interplay between materials and craftsmanship: from konomad’s works with hair to variations on floral motifs—printed by Koh Kado using the karakami technique and brought to life in three dimensions by the artisans at Lemarié—and including the installation by Thomas Takada and Goossens, which combines gilded brass and mulberry leaves.

In this episode, members of the editorial committee and artists featured in the exhibition offer a behind-the-scenes look at unique collaborations. How does the transmission of gesture become a source of inspiration? How does a technique reinvent itself when it encounters a distinctive creative world? How can we build a vibrant dialogue between heritage and modernity?
