As a couple, we continue collecting contemporary art works for last 6 years, saying “Contemporary Art is ‘the clamp’ to hold us together.” We are interested in the art works with some feelings of universalism and/or science&technology beyond space and times, and brand-new possibilities toward future. We find it also pleasant to get to know artists face to face and talk with them about their own works. Through collecting works, we enjoy meeting and connecting various people, and even the whole process of expanding our views. E&K Associates is the name of our collection based on the both's agreement.
