AATONAU comes from the Japanese-style pronunciation of “Art Now.”
It is a soft and playful way of naming what we do: sharing art in the present moment.
In 25 seconds
AATONAU was born from a simple idea: art that deserves to be seen now.
Our name reflects this spirit. When the English words “Art Now” are pronounced in a Japanese context, the sound becomes AATONAU. This playful pronunciation is a small wink at where we are based: Japan.
We feature artists from all over the world and help them connect with galleries, collectors, and art lovers. By working closely with each artist, we create thoughtful and engaging stories that reveal their practice with honesty, respect, and care.
We value transparency. Some features are supported by contributions, but our commitment remains the same. We represent artists’ voices and work with integrity.
AATONAU is a growing community of people who believe art can shift perspectives, open conversations, and enrich lives.
We are here to help artists share their work and to help the world discover it.
