Artists

Yutaka Aoki
Recognizing the world through painting, understanding painting through its relationship with the world, and investigating its possibilities. Through many different approaches, Yutaka Aoki has always been engaged in these endeavors. His work freely traverses the two- and three-dimensional: installations composed of paintings intermingled with sculptures; or the series of silver paintings in which the artist emphasizes the touches of the brushstrokes by building up mountains of paint and then spraying color onto them; or the series of paper that he folds modeled upon genetic structures and then sprays with color from one direction. He demonstrates how scenery changes according to perspectives, and suggests that it is not the symbolic value of a particular image, but rather the materiality of media and the production process themselves that compose a painting, his creation process thereby expanding painting’s field of vision and offering visual experiences that bring back various human sensitivities to our digitalized daily life. This exhibition will feature approximately 15 new paintings, centering upon the silver painting series described above.
