■ Stores with digital works and online gallery "DiGARO"
"DiGARO" is a digital art gallery that focuses on digital works that are unique in the world. We propose a new experience where you can enjoy the works of popular digital artists on SNS both in real life and digitally. In addition to exhibiting high-quality print works, we will develop next-generation galleries through online exhibitions and AR exhibitions.
We have also introduced a unique system that grants royalties to purchasers (holders) of original digital works to return 10% of secondary sales revenue, so please enjoy it.
<Outline of royalty profit return system>
● Primary distribution
It is a flow to purchase "original digital works" at DiGARO.
● Secondary distribution [Holder's rights]
When goods and printed works are purchased from DiGARO, the profits are returned to the creator's artist and the owner (holder) of the original work that is the supporter.
■ The 1st Group Exhibition "anywhere vol.1"
Since 2018, we have been sending out wonderful artists who are active in SNS on Instagram art media "KEIVI -light art-". Among them, this time, we are curating mainly artists who sympathize with this project and have a very high response from overseas users.
In this special exhibition, 3 works will be exhibited by each artist, and a total of 15 original digital works and printed works will be exhibited and sold in real, AR, and SNS.

■ About NFT art <br /> We have been planning a service based on blockchain from the beginning, but at this stage, it is too early to enter the NFT art market as a position to keep valuable works. We will start as a web service.
In the future, we are currently developing services with our partner canow Co., Ltd. in order to form a unique digital content economy based on tokens and to gradually build an NFT marketplace.

■ Comment by Shogo Noro, Representative of Lafrowa GK "I want to make J-POP for art."
We have been nurturing our own community by sending out artists who are mainly active in SNS for about 3 years. The number of artists introduced has exceeded 1,000, and the number of Instagram followers has exceeded 38,000, and we are still enjoying SNS art with community members.
Through our activities so far, we believe that digital art has great value and great potential. However, there are not many places in art that can be monetized as casually as music. We would like to create a soil where more artists can continue to play an active role by creating a mechanism to visualize and return this newly created value.
This time, Yurakucho Marui sympathized with our vision, and I feel that it is meaningful to be able to carry out such a new attempt in Ginza, which can be said to be the center of Japanese art. I would like to do my best.
