Arts Initiative Tokyo

Arts Initiative Tokyo (AIT) a not-for-profit independent collective of curators and art administrators based in Tokyo, Japan. It is especially concerned with contemporary art.It was founded in 2001 by six curators and arts administrators: Yuko Ozawa, Yoko Miyahara, Keisuke Ozawa, Yasu Nakamori, Fumihiko Sumitomo and Roger McDonald. Its main initiatives are: Tokyo's first systematic artist in residence program partnering with organisations such as IASPIS, Asialink and FRAME, and an independent contemporary art school called MAD. MAD offers five courses and as of 2007 attracts over 130 students per year. AIT does not hold a permanent exhibition space, rather working flexibly out of an office/ classroom in the Daikanyama area of Tokyo.
