Overview
The Chinretsukan Gallery at The University Art Museum, Tokyo University of the Arts, has announced the exhibition "Kiyoshi Furukawa Retirement Exhibition: Resonating Sound and Media – Media Art and Music Today."
The exhibition marks Kiyoshi Furukawa's retirement. As the title suggests, it is expected to explore the resonance between sound and media and present where media art and media music stand today. The venue, the Chinretsukan Gallery, is one of the exhibition spaces of The University Art Museum and is located on the Tokyo University of the Arts campus near Ueno Park.
Furukawa has worked on creative projects and research in computer music and media art, and the exhibition commemorates his retirement as a milestone in that career. The phrase "Resonating Sound and Media" in the title suggests the exhibition will look back at how sound and media technology have interacted and taken shape as artistic expression, while also showing current trends in media art and media music.

The Chinretsukan Gallery is one of its venues for special exhibitions and has also served as a place to present the research and creative work of university members.
