Who
Founded by Naohito Matsukawa in 2022, Lurf Gallery is run with an ensemble of young Tokyo creatives, art directors, and gallery specialists.
What
A two-story alternative art complex, contemporary gallery, cafe, and museum merchandise shop. The first floor is a specialty coffee cafe and shop furnished with 1930s Danish vintage mid-century furniture, displaying curated art editions, zines, prints, apparel, and artist collaborations. The second floor is a minimal, exhibition space that showcases rotating solo and group shows from prominent contemporary painters, illustrators, and graphic artists such as Yu Nagaba, Keiji Ito, Rikako Kawauchi, and upcoming artists.
When
Open daily from 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM
Where
In the Daikanyama design district just down the block from the Daikanyama T-Site.
Why
Stop by the cafe to enjoy coffee and unique pastries in a warm, calm environment and a fresh rotation of drawings on the walls. Visit the second floor to see the latest exhibition, often vibrant paintings with contemporary techniques and playful imagery.
