5ForewordAkiyoshidai International Art Village (AIAV)was established near the quasi-national parkAkiyoshidai in Mine city, Yamaguchi prefecture, in1998 as an institution to support artistic practices.Since then, supporting numbers of national andinternational artists and providing them withcreative opportunities for a wide range of practicesincluding music, art, dance, and film, we havepresented their outcomes to the world. Notably,our Artist-in-Residence program fosters youngartists, mostly under 40 years old, and more than170 artists throughout the world have vigorouslyworked on their artistic activities here.In fiscal year 2017, we had nearly 450 applicationsfrom all over the world and through carefulselection, AIAV has accepted 6 artists fromPoland, Egypt, Japan, Republic of Korea, Taiwan,and Finland. Given a specific theme every yearupon the call, which was “The Future of This Land”in this year, they worked on their artistic creationbased on this theme. These artists stayed hereand researched for 55 days and actively engagedwith local residents and I am impressed that theyproduced aspiring works with a variety of uniqueideas this year, as well.
