Monday, July 21 - Wednesday, July 23, 2025
"Study × PLAS: Asia Art Fair" is a comprehensive art and creative fair jointly held by Japan and Korea to coincide with the 2025 Osaka-Kansai Expo, in commemoration of the 60th anniversary of the normalization of diplomatic relations between Japan and Korea, as well as to build a future-oriented relationship between the culture and arts of Japan, Korea, and the rest of Asia.
Study:The Osaka Kansai International Art Festival aims to use the 2025 Osaka-Kansai Expo as an opportunity to hold a large-scale art festival with the theme of "social impact," which refers to revitalizing culture, the arts, and the economy, and bringing to light social issues.The festival has been held three times since 2022 as a pre-event to verify the feasibility.
In 2025, when the World Expo will be held, it has been decided that an art exhibition called "Study: Osaka Kansai International Art Festival 2025" will be held in various locations throughout the Osaka-Kansai Expo "EXPO 2025," which will run for 184 days from Sunday, April 13th to Monday, October 13th (Organizer: Osaka Kansai International Art Festival Executive Committee (within ARTLOGUE Inc.)).
As one example, the international art fair "Study × PLAS: Asia Art Fair" will be held in Osaka City from Monday, July 21st to Wednesday, July 23rd, 2025.
The fair title "Study" represents our determination to never be satisfied with the status quo, but to continue to seek out new frontiers and take on new challenges.

This is a comprehensive art and creative fair that will be jointly held by Japan and Korea in conjunction with the 2025 Osaka-Kansai Expo to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the normalization of diplomatic relations between Japan and Korea, and to build a future-oriented relationship in the arts and culture between Japan, Korea, and Asia.
This exhibition is being held jointly by ARTLOGUE Inc. and Plastic Art Seoul (commonly known as PLAS), a contemporary art fair that was established in South Korea in 2016. PLAS is positioned as South Korea's largest plastic arts art fair, bringing together a variety of plastic arts, including three-dimensional sculptures as well as two-dimensional works.

The venue will be larger than ever, occupying multiple floors of the Osaka International Convention Center (commonly known as Grand Cube Osaka), located in Nakanoshima (Kita-ku, Osaka City), a symbol of the water metropolis of Osaka where many cultural facilities are lined up. Since its establishment in 1999, designed by KUROKAWA Kisho, it has been the stage for major international meetings such as the G8 Summit (2000), the Summit Finance Ministers' Meeting (2008), and the G7 Trade Ministers' Meeting (2023).

Large-scale event
"Study × PLAS : Asia Art Fair” aims to be the largest NFT art conference ever held in Japan, bringing together top-class NFT artists, WEB3 and UGC, in addition to PLAS. It will be a new age art fair where NFT art from around the world will come and go with art galleries that Japan and Korea will cooperate to attract.
