Just as Oda Nobunaga had a retainer named Yasuke who is said to have been from Mozambique, there has long been exchange between Africa and Asia across the Indian Ocean via the seasonal winds (monsoons).

Exhibiting artists: Ishikawa Mao, Elias Sime, Wangechi Mutu, Joël Andrianomearisoa, Choi Won-jun, Hasegawa Ai, Yoshikuni Gen, Mahdi Eshaei, Namichie, and others.
