MOMENT Contemporary Art Center は、芸術活動を通じて人々の日常生活の中に非日常の瞬間を生み出す場所です。 芸術活動は歴史づくりです。作家は時代と向きあって作品を作り出し、鑑賞者はその中から歴史に残すべき作品を見極めて未来に託します。その両者の活動全体が芸術であり、その積み重ねが私たちの生きた社会のアーカイブとなり人類の歴史となります。作家が鋭い感性で表現する自然や社会の中で感じ取った“気づき”を皆で共感し、周囲と意見交換することが、人々を理性のある思考へと導きます。

MOMENTでは、国内外の作家と出会う機会を創出するアーティスト・イン・レジデンスの運営、発見と対話のための作品展示、ワークショップ、トークイベント等を開催し、作家支援だけでなく、鑑賞者育成にも力を入れています。

MOMENT Contemporary Art Center is a place that brings extraordinary moments into people's everyday lives through artistic endeavors. Artistic activity is the act of creating history. Artists engage with their times to produce works, while viewers discern which pieces should be preserved for future generations. The collective efforts of both parties constitute art, and their accumulation serves as an archive of the societies we have lived in, ultimately becoming part of human history. By sharing and exchanging opinions about the insights that artists, with their sharp sensibilities, capture from nature and society, people are guided toward rational and thoughtful reflection.

At MOMENT, we focus not only on supporting artists but also on cultivating viewers by organizing an artist-in-residence program that creates opportunities to engage with artists from Japan and abroad. We also host exhibitions for discovery and dialogue, as well as workshops, talk events, and other activities.
