Gallery tips for Fukuoka

How the regulars do Fukuoka's galleries:

• Many galleries are free at 石橋文化センター. Smaller and artist-run spaces often charge nothing. When in doubt, check the website rather than assuming.
• Visit twice if it moves you at 富士フイルムフォトサロン 福岡. A second visit to a strong show is never wasted. You see completely different work the second time.
• Small galleries take risks. Artist-run spaces show the work the big institutions won't. Some of it's baffling; some of it's the future.
• Don't skip the project room. The small back room often holds the most interesting work — emerging artists, experiments, one-night installations.
