Questioning “Being” in New York in the Age of AI

A Group Exhibition by Four Emerging Japanese Artists at Gallery 60 NYC

In an era where AI continuously and rapidly transforms society, this exhibition establishes a philosophical sanctuary in New York to re-examine the core of “Being"̶what it truly means to exist and live as a human. Driven by the fundamental question, "What does it mean to live?”, the artists engage in dialogue with people from diverse backgrounds to contemplate our collective future. By unearthing the emotions and imagination born from genuine human connection, this exhibition seeks to spark new perspectives. Set against the backdrop of New York, a multinational metropolis where diverse cultures and thoughts intersect̶the exhibition embraces this multi-layered complexity as a source of creation, exploring ways for humans to truly live as humans, transcending nationalities and borders.
