GACKT OFFICIAL NEWS: GACKT's calligraphy works are on display at Haneda Airport Garden!

GACKT Official news update. Translation below

With the mission of "uniting the world through the connections between culture and donations," the ONE WORLD Project (operated by the Kronos Conservation Foundation) will host "ONE WORLD: Connecting and Preserving Traditional Culture through Bonds - Wrapping the Earth" at Haneda Airport Garden from Wednesday, March 4, 2026. The exhibition features works by artist GACKT, calligraphy master Yoshikawa Juichi, former captain of the Japan U23 national team, Nasu Daisuke, and Asia's first Olympic and World Championship medalist in athletics, Suetsugu Shingo.

This unique cultural exhibition features four artists who have reached the pinnacle of their respective fields, each taking up their brush and expressing their individual passions through calligraphy. Led by calligraphy master Yoshikawa Juichi, the calligraphy of these four artists, spanning genres, comes together under the shared prayer of "uniting the world through the connections between culture and donations." From Haneda Airport, Japan's gateway to the skies, we will deliver the beauty and strength of Japanese culture to travelers from around the world.

■ONE WORLD ~Uniting the World through Culture and Donations~

The ONE WORLD Project is a cultural heritage and social contribution project run by the Kronos Conservation Foundation. Based on the themes of "preserving historical buildings," "harmony," and "connections of support," we promote traditional Japanese culture globally, transcending borders and genres, while also expanding education and promoting the culture of giving.

Culture is not valuable because everyone knows it. It exists because of the people who have continued to preserve it. "Protect," "Connect," and "Pass on"—these three principles are the foundation of ONE WORLD.

■"OEN"—ONE WORLD Travels the World

"OEN" means connections that travel. Connections transcend borders and time. It is a world where connections between people travel across the globe, connected by connections of culture and donations. ONE WORLD is also OEN WORLD.

Not only does it connect the horizontal axis (people living in the present), but it also connects the vertical axis (past, present, and future). People living in the past, present, and future become one through the connections of connections. That is the worldview envisioned by ONE WORLD.

■How Donations Work

Donations are the embodiment of feelings. Japan has been known globally as a country where a culture of giving has struggled to take root. That's why it's so meaningful to start here. Through activities to learn about, protect, and connect culture, the circle of donations will naturally expand. That's what ONE WORLD aims to achieve.

In cooperation with the Kronos Conservation Foundation, a portion of the proceeds from ONE WORLD's efforts will be donated to disaster relief efforts on the Noto Peninsula in Ishikawa Prefecture (donations to the Ishikawa Prefecture Branch of the Japanese Red Cross Society and the Ishikawa Prefecture Community Chest) and for the preservation of cultural heritage.

■The Journey of ONE WORLD: A Story of Passing the Baton

The ONE WORLD project has been carried out at Japan's most iconic historical and cultural sites, passing on the "cultural baton." Now, that baton is about to extend beyond Japan and become a World Heritage Site.

[Passing the Baton to the Future]

And in the future, it will be passed on to Nezu Shrine (a Nationally Designated Important Cultural Property), Yasuda Auditorium at the University of Tokyo, and on to World Heritage sites like Sagrada Familia (Spain), Niagara Falls (Canada and the United States), and the Pyramids of Giza (Egypt).

The cultural baton, which began at Tsukiji Honganji Temple in July 2024, will travel to Osaka, Tokyo, and Haneda, before finally reaching the world. In these iconic cultural and historical locations, a new chapter will be written in the story of cultural preservation originating in Japan.

■Collaboration with Educational and Public Institutions

The University of Tokyo—In collaboration with Japan's top academic institutions, we are promoting the integration of cultural preservation and education. We plan to develop this project in historic academic spaces, including Yasuda Auditorium, with the aim of creating new value at the intersection of academia, culture, and the arts.

The story of culture begins here and now. Dreaming of the day when the world will become one.
