The general exhibition begins. “Wonderfarms,” a two-artist unit who exhibited and sold fluffy toys received a prize from the editors of “Smart.”

With over 1100 booths and the highest number of visitors we’ve ever recorded, the mood was ecstatic.

“Takeshi’s Anyone Can Be a Picasso” set up a booth and caught everyone’s attention with their mixed media contents.

This time we had the participation of a “real” GEISAI. Tama Art University’s school festival executive committee exhibited a booth.

Here are some regular GEISAI regular exhibitors - sisters Kaori and Mari came by the Rocket Bus Tour.

Our Happi coats this time were inspired by the uniforms of the Hnashin Tigers. The Tigers won the Central League in this year.

This “booth with red walls by the Nagoya Art Festival Creator’s Market” really stood out.

marm, organized by the Avex Group, purchased 8 eight walls to build the largest booth ever at GEISAI. The artworks on display were all by children.

Our slogan for GEISAI#4, “Never-ending School Festival” turned out to be far more accurate than anyone could have expected. It seemed to express the entire event in a single phrase.

“WAWAWA” , who exhibited clone dolls, was awarded the NIGO Prize.

As GEISAI began, “Wire craftsman Rio” received a scout award from “Takeshi no Daredemo Picasso”.
