Guided Viewing Tour “Hanashite Miyou / Let’s Talk, Let’s Look”
- Lecturer: Art Communication Research Center (ACC), Kyoto University of the Arts
ACK Kids’ Programs consist of “making” and “seeing” activities.
The “seeing” program encourages children to experience artworks through close observation, touring the venue while exchanging ideas with other participants.
We generally accept applications from schools, organizations, and groups. Those interested in applying as a group or participating individually are encouraged to contact us first. The schedule and program details will be arranged through consultation.

What kind of place is an art fair, and what happens there? In this tour, we bring a to the fair: participants look at artworks and put what they feel, think, and discover into their own words, while listening to the perspectives of others to deepen their experience of each work. Instead of searching for the “right” answer, let’s discover new “ways of viewing” and “ways of enjoying” works of art that emerge through the process of asking questions.Guided by staff, participants tour the venue and take time to closely view the actual works on Exhibit.

A research center attached to Kyoto University of the Arts, a research institute that explores the possibilities of art from various perspectives. Established in April 2009, it traces its origins to the “Visual Thinking Curriculum” (VTC)—an art appreciation education program developed at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York.The interactive art education program ACOP (Art Communication Project) considers art communication in a broad sense, and approaches communication—the most important element for people to live with others—from the field of art to understand the nature of communication and how it can be nurtured.
