From GAN to the world,
A bridge to the global stage.

The power of art to connect the future

GAN PROJECT Inc. is a contemporary art initiative inspired by the legacy of Akira Ishino and GALLERYGAN, originally founded in Ginza in 1995. Known for discovering and supporting emerging artists, Ishino brought fresh perspectives to the global art scene through exhibitions across Japan and abroad. His contributions earned him prestigious honors and deep respect within the international art community.

Continuing this spirit, GAN PROJECT is committed to discovering and nurturing artists while promoting “marketable contemporary art” across a growing global network. Marking the first anniversary of Ishino’s passing, the project has expanded its platform to showcase a diverse range of talent from Japan and beyond—supporting boundary-pushing creativity and shaping the future of art for a new generation.

Contemporary Artist

LUNA PARK is a photographic artist who masterfully explores the power of blue and the raw energy that dwells within darkness. In her work, the color blue serves as a symbol of cold intensity, depth, and mystery, while simultaneously drawing out the hidden strength within shadowed spaces.

Through the contrast of light and shadow and the nuanced use of blue tones, she captures the inner energy and silent expressions of her subjects. Her images transcend visual beauty, resonating on emotional and spiritual levels with viewers. The vitality that emerges from within the darkness, expressed through vibrant blues, evokes more than just aesthetic admiration—it provokes a visceral response.

Blue, in her hands, becomes a language of stillness, mystery, and the allure of the unknown. Her works invite the viewer into a quiet realm of contemplation, transforming ordinary landscapes into
extraordinary emotional experiences. By uncovering beauty that is often overlooked, she encourages a new way of seeing, one rooted in presence and sensitivity.

LUNA PARK’s unique artistic approach has earned her recognition both in Japan and internationally. Her photographs have been acquired by numerous galleries and featured in prominent exhibitions around the world.
