Keisuke Tada “Forge”

Maho Kubota Gallery
Finished

Artists

Keisuke Tada
“Forge” includes works from Keisuke Tada’s trace/wood series, where either raw, physical expression reminiscent of action painting or the Informel movement, or else graffiti-like scrawls, are layered on top of a hyper-real background surface of “forged” visual data. In Painting of Incomplete Remains, the other series featured in this exhibition, the artist takes a finished painting in the classical figurative style and freezes it, presenting it in its defrosted form with sections missing. By creating differing layers within a single painting, bringing them into conflict with one another and forcing negotiation, he attempts to create a chaotic din, a distortion of time. The exhibition presents ten or so new works by Tada, predominantly from these two series.
