Kanda & Oliveira was founded in 2022 by Yusuke Kanda, a Japanese collector of antiques, modern and contemporary art, and Christele de Oliveira, a French citizen with a multicultural background and a strong interest in Japanese ceramics.
Located in a residential area east of Tokyo, the gallery was designed by architect Mai Komuro. The building is characterized by its custom-made black tiles and its distinctive seven saw-tooth roofs, along with an interesting layout of 3 floors of exhibition space, one of which is about 6 meters high at its highest point. The lighting is provided by a well-known professional in museum lighting.
Kanda & Oliveira focuses on modern and contemporary art through a solid selection of Japanese and international artists and aims to deliver exhibitions of profound artistic vision and enduring quality, hoping to transcend the immediate and contribute to cultural memory.
