Thank You Art Day
March 9, 2009
39 Art Day”
(Thank You Art Day) is a special day to appreciate,
promote, and otherwise positively
engage ourselves in contemporary art worldwide.
We invite you to a glass of champagne on that day
and your visit of the NKV is free of charge.
39
Art Day was initiated by a Germany-based
Japanese artist Yoshiaki Kaihatsu (www.yoshiakikaihatsu.com)
in 2000 to foster the appreciation
of contemporary art in Japan, the country where
support for contemporary art is still weak at best,
if not altogether absent. In Japanese, "thank you"
rhymes with 3/9 (san-kyuu), because there is no
"th" sound in Japanese and the Japanese people tend
to pronounce "th" as "s." Thus, the Day of
39 Art on March 9.
