The fourth edition of Tokyo Gendai took place from 11 to 13 September 2026 (VIP Preview and Vernissage on 10 September) at PACIFICO Yokohama. Bringing together 69 galleries from around the world, the fair showcased the energy and breadth of Japanese creativity, from works that reimagine craft traditions to experimental practices harnessing the latest digital technologies.

We extend our sincere gratitude to everyone who visited, as well as to our participating galleries, sponsors, partners and staff, whose support made our fourth edition such a success.
