Mika Gallery was established in 2003 as a gallery permanently based in America.

​

With the aim of introducing early Japanese Art from the prehistoric to the 19th century to a wide global audience, Mika Gallery is operating at its permanent location on the 8th floor of the Fuller Building, a well-known gallery building located at the heart of Manhattan. 

​

Owner and director Mika Seki Hirama established Shouun Oriental Art located in GInza Tokyo in 1987, as a permanent space. Her gallery in Tokyo deals Japanese and Chinese Art. She has authored publications "Flower, Man, Vessels", "Ancient and Beautiful Objects", "Mind's Eye", "Traces", among others.

​

Based on years of experience with the two galleries based in Tokyo and New York, a selection of high quality art works are introduced to and acquired by museums and collectors in America, Europe, Oceania and Asia. Also, there is a strong emphasis on producing thematic exhibitions and publications based on early artworks with traditional cultural backgrounds.
