ITAMI Art Project to be Rolled out Throughout Terminal

Kansai Airports is pleased to announce that various artworks will be displayed throughout the terminal building at Osaka International Airport (ITAMI) in conjunction with the airport's pre-opening scheduled for April 18, 2018 after renovation.

By involving the local community, the art program is designed to establish a distinct sense of place showcasing Kansai-centric artworks by professional artists as well as a collaborative art exhibition with local college and university students. 

A participatory art event will also take place ahead of the pre-opening, aimed at getting local residents to participate in the painting of wall murals on the rooftop.

Kansai Airports is committed to building mutually beneficial relationships with local communities through artworks, while allowing airport guests to experience the unique sense of Kansai.

[Purpose]
The art project is intended to showcase Premium Kansai, our Sense of Place concept, through a variety of art exhibitions at ITAMI. In doing so, it also aims to make ITAMI an airport sharing harmonious and cooperative relationships with local residents.
