“ART×SAKE” Thursday Lates Powered by SAKEJUMP Indulge in sake made by young brewers and modern & contemporary art masterpieces!
SBI Art Auction is delighted to announce "Thursday Lates Powered by SAKEJUMP" on Thursday, July 4, 2024, at the Daikanyama Hillside Forum. We aim to go beyond providing a place for selling and buying artworks to become a platform that offers special experiences and connections to art lovers. As part of our efforts, we have planned this event from the angle of ART x SAKE. The sequence of brewing, distribution, and consumption of sake strongly reflect the uniqueness of the region and its local climate and customs. Furthermore, the culture related to sake, which has been nurtured by the creativity and dedication of its brewers, is profound. We believe that exploring this sake culture shares similarities with the fascination of engaging with art, offering a rich tapestry of traditions and innovations to discover and appreciate. SAKEJUMP is an organization which has been dedicated to promoting the fine taste of sake, its culture, and especially, enthusiastic thoughts and activities of young brewers, to the wider world, and SBI Art Auction shares similar aspirations with SAKEJUMP, which endeavors to revitalize the contemporary art and market in Japan, although we are both in different fields of business. Inspired by the hometowns of the artists who will be featured in the July sale, we have curated a selection of 12 different types of sake from emerging sake breweries from all over Japan, from Tohoku to Kyushu. By extending the opening hours of the auction preview and providing an opportunity to enjoy sake together with art, we hope to expand the relationship between art and sake, and to introduce sake culture to visitors to Japan during the Tokyo Art Week in the summer, including Tokyo Gendai Art Fair. We are looking forward to welcoming you to this event (Admission is free!).
■ART×SAKE – Highlights
The following highlights include four of the twelve different varieties of sake which will be offered at this event.
We will also present works by artists from the area where the brewery is located.

He questioned Western artistic theoritical tendencies such as "art is about images," as well as a predominant method of creating "things" in which "images" prevailed. Under those circumstances he started focusing on the "things" which always exist prior to "images. "

■What is SAKEJUMP?
"Wakate no Yoake (sakejump)" is a sake event that has been held since 2007, organized by brewery owners. In September 2022, camo took over the event, expanding and renewing it, now held mainly in Otemachi. To date, 143 breweries from 42 prefectures have participated. This event, the only one in the world where young brewers gather, has attracted significant attention and fostered a strong community among these brewers, leading to collaborative efforts such as supporting the revival of breweries affected by the Noto earthquake.

SBI藝術拍賣將於2024年7月4日(星期四) 於東京代官山舉辦一場名爲「Thursday Lates Powered by SAKEJUMP」的特別活動。
SBI藝術拍賣不僅僅是一個藝術品的交易平台，我們更致力於為藝術愛好者提供獨特的體驗。因此，在本次拍賣活動中，我們特別為您策劃了一場藝術與美酒結合的盛宴。日本酒的釀造、流通與消費不僅體現了當地的風土人情，釀酒師的創新精神與匠人的執著也通過他們釀造的清酒展現無遺。如同藝術，清酒文化也蘊含著豐富的共通性與深度。
本次活動得到了SAKEJUMP的全面支持，他們致力於向全世界推廣美味的日本酒及其豐富文化，特別是推廣年輕釀酒師的積極參與和創新想法。這與SBI藝術拍賣致力於活化日本當代藝術及市場的理念不謀而合。
本次7月拍賣特別准備了來自藝術家出生地，東北至九州的全國各地新進酒廠共12種日本酒。為了讓大家在欣賞藝術的同時品嘗到這些精選日本美酒，我們延長了預展的開放時間，期望擴大藝術與日本酒愛好者的交流。此外，我們希望此活動能成為Tokyo Gendai期間訪日者了解日本酒文化的絕佳機會。活動完全免費，熱烈歡迎大家踴躍報名參加。
