In May 2025, at the martial arts event “RIZIN Otoko Matsuri 2025,” AREA154 supported fighter Mikuru Asakura as a sponsor for his fight shorts. AREA154 has always valued the powerful expression of street art, and we found strong resonation with Asakura’s street fight spirit and his unique fighting style. Both street art and street fighting are rooted in individuality and free expression. This collaboration created a moment where art and sports came together as one. AREA154 will continue to support new challenges through the power of art.
Our represented artist Nick Walker will be featured on the NHK’s special program “Ukiyo-e Revolution! In Search of the Reiwa Sharaku.” This program takes a unique approach in its search for the “Sharaku of today, “diving into contemporary visual expressions that carry the spirit of traditional ukiyo-e. As an artist who depicts contemporary life through a distinctive style and sensibility, Nick’s creative process and perspective will be featured in the program. While inheriting the spirit of traditional ukiyo-e, Nick’s work also conveys a contemporary message, capturing the intersection of tradition and innovation in the present moment. A must-see for art lovers. Broadcast Information: Program Title: NHK “Ukiyo-e Revolution! In Search of the Reiwa Sharaku” Broadcast Dates: ・May 10, 2025 (First broadcast) ・June 1, 2025 (Second broadcast) from 2:45 PM to 4:15 PM Program Page：https://www.nhk.jp/p/ts/6QLZ93RP31/episode/te/2WYRX46PN7/ Be sure to tune in!
