Candy Factory is a persona that Tokyo artist Takuji Kogo uses to present himself individually and to organise collaborations with serial and sometimes recurrent artists from Asia, Europe and North America (Sean Snyder, Steffan Schmidt, YOUNG-HAE CHANG HEAVY INDUSTRIES, Akiro Mori amongst others). Candy Factory operates simultaneously as a curator, artist, production house, virtual gallery, akin to an information age version of Andy Warhol’s Factory. He produces internet projects that are also often curated as exhibitions in galleries and museums.
