Ryoichi Kobayashi
Hino gallery is pleased to present “Desire of Oil Paint” by Ryoichi Kobayashi from Tuesday, October 10th, 2023.
Kobayashi has been working with oil paint since the late 1980s, and the title of this exhibition seems to reflect his relationship with the material over the last 40 years of painting.
The artist's comments on this exhibition give the impression that the works are passively guided by the paint, but it is the artist himself who chooses the colors and moves the brush. The act of applying multiple coats of paint and the appearance of unexpected texture on the canvas are the result of the artist's response to the material’s reactive qualities (desire). In other words, "Desire of Oil Paint" is an impulse that has driven the artist to create oil paintings for so many years. It is an expectation in terms of the possibilities in painting, and perhaps Kobayashi’s own aspiration.
This will be Kobayashi's first solo exhibition at Hino gallery in about three years, and we will be showing his newest oil paintings, including two large paintings (238 × 194 cm). We hope you will enjoy the exhibition.
