Shintaro Tanaka
From his striking debut at the age of 19 until his passing at 79, Shintaro Tanaka remained a vital presence in the history of Japanese contemporary art from the 1960s onward. Art Front Gallery had the privilege of collaborating with Tanaka in various ways over the years, including solo exhibitions, the 2020 retrospective at Ichihara Lakeside Museum, as well as public art projects and art festivals.
At a time when renewed attention is being given to his work through the exhibition Shintaro Tanaka – Far Away from Meaning at Setagaya Art Museum (on view through June 28), Art Front Gallery is pleased to present a selection of outstanding works from our collection.
The exhibition features large-scale paintings created around the time of the 1988 Seoul Olympics, including HAN – Black Hair and HAN – Even on Snowy Days, as well as the oil painting Anemophily, drawings, and archival materials and video documentation related to projects developed through Tanaka’s collaborations with Art Front Gallery, including Faret Tachikawa and the Echigo-Tsumari Art Triennale.
