A New Tokyo Art Space Will Champion Contemporary African Art                                       

UK returns 32 royal artifacts to Ghana's Ashanti Empire after 150 years.
The restored artifacts are displayed outside a modern building, symbolizing cultural heritage and historical reconciliation.

With a somewhat unusual provenance, a new art gallery in Tokyo aims to become a center for contemporary African art. Backed by a member of a prominent family in French luxury goods, a German cultural entrepreneur and a Japanese actor, Space Un synthesizes their shared passion for African art and a desire to promote cultural exchange between Japan and African countries.
