Gallery UG

Since establishing its gallery in 2001 in Tokyo, Ginza, gallery UG has developed various art projects based on its own personal values.

In 2011, the gallery relocated to Bakurocho, Nihonbashi and began its full scale expansion of their primary artists internationally. Through actively participating in art fairs overseas as well as solo and group exhibitions from patterned galleries, gallery UG has worked to build the international branding of its represented artists.

In September 2020, gallery UG Tennoz opened as the flagship gallery on the 2nd floor of TERRADA ART COMPLEX Ⅱin Tennoz. Acting as a platform to showcase the appeal and expression that center around three dimensional art pieces, the gallery hosts dynamic solo exhibitions as well as special exhibitions year round.

Additionally, in February 2024 the first gallery in the Kansai region, gallery UG Osaka Umeda opened on the 11th floor of Daimaru Umeda. And in August 2025, the first Kyushu region gallery, gallery UG Fukuoka opened on the 5th floor of the east building of Daimaru Fukuoka Tenshin. By expanding locations in Japan, gallery UG continues to broaden the promotion of its artists.

(Currently the Bakurocho and Umeda locations are closed)

In addition, the gallery operates two dedicated studios for its represented artists, providing production support as well as creating opportunities for artist development and exchange. Through various promotions, gallery UG proposes a new image of what a gallery can be, aiming to further enrich and expand the field of contemporary art.
