Artists

Isamu Gakiya
Masumi Sasaki Gallery will be hosting an exhibition by Isamu Gakiya titled "You and Me," starting on June 8. Since beginning his career as an artist, Gakiya has created works using methods such as painting, collage, and drawing to portray complex emotions like loneliness and affection, as well as universal themes such as absurdity and religion encountered in life.

This exhibition will feature a variety of Gakiya’s past works and introduce a new series of paintings depicting young girls. While Gakiya is well-known for his drawings, as evidenced by his Instagram following exceeding 50,000, he has also been actively producing paintings and collages since the start of his career. In 2017, a collection of his works created using these methods was exhibited at the Okinawa Prefectural Museum. This exhibition will similarly showcase a mix of unpublished works, past works, and new works across various mediums.

Additionally, a limited edition reissue of Gakiya's out-of-print art book "Childie," which is sold annually at a year-end drawing exhibition, will be available with new pages added. This exhibition marks the debut event at the newly opened Masumi Sasaki Gallery in Koto Ward, Tokyo.
