The Shozo Shimamoto Association, housed in the eighteenth-century Palazzo Spinelli di Tarsia, Naples, was founded in Italy and Japan in 2007 by Rosanna Chiessi, Laura Montanari, and Giuseppe Morra. It was set up with the aim of promoting and supporting Shozo Shimamoto’s artistic research through the publication of catalogues, videos, and documentaries. The Association would also organize exhibitions and events.
