Artists

Kansuke Yamamoto
This is a solo exhibition of works by Kansuke Yamamoto, who, between the early 1930s and 1980s, created avant-garde photographic works that manifested his sharp eye for social criticism and a unique poetic sensibility. He was one of the leading figures of Surrealist photography in Japan and used a variety of methods in his work, including collage and photomontage. His subjects ranged from objects arranged in extraordinary ways to detailed close-ups of various materials. From the 1950s, he also created paintings, sculptures and serial theatrical photographs. This will be his second solo show with Taka Ishii Gallery, following his first at Taka Ishii Gallery New York last spring. It will feature 4 sculptural and 28 photographic works.
