The cream of Tokyo’s art galleries try to jazz up sales with G-Tokyo, a selective art expo that has offered an alternative to the sprawling Tokyo Art Fair since 2010. Held at the high-profile Mori Arts Center Gallery in Roppongi Hills, the event aims to connect deep-pocketed collectors with the cutting-edge in Japanese art. Among the hot young artists represented is Berlin/London-based Simon Fujiwara, whose works range from novels to installations, and origami-inspired artist Haruka Kojin.
