Shibuya Hikarie 8/ Art gallery
Finished

Artists

Masahiko Kuwahara
Born in 1959 Kuwahara first began to show his work in the 1980s, seemingly embracing the distortion and darkness of Japan’s high economic growth period, uncovering the guilty conscience or shame of post-war Japanese society. Yet since the mid-90s his work underwent a shift from social discourse to more private and internal contemplations often depicting motifs of drifting flowers, jellyfish and dolls. In his recent bright works, a feeling of desolation is accompanied by idiosyncratic happiness, and the girl figures resemble the Madonna. This exhibition will feature new and recent works produced since his solo show in 2012.
