TOKYO GADAN was formed in 2020 by painters who “dedicate themselves to painting in pursuit of pure painterly expression” (Representative: Sonosuke Yukichika). Since then, as the leading figures in the Japanese and Western painting worlds, they have held such as two large-scale exhibitions at the Maruzen Marunouchi gallery, pursuing the creation of beauty. At this New York exhibition, six artists at the helm of the times exhibit approximately 35 works in an effort to spread this momentum even further around the world.

ORCHARD STREET
August 28 – October 8, 2024
Opening Reception
Wednesday. Aug 28, 5–7 PM
Orchard Street, in the modern era, was a shopping district full of enthusiasm, being supported by the specialty stores selling clothing, fabrics, hats, bags, toys, etc. competed for low prices and product selection. This series of black-and-white photographs taken in 2003 is the situation in an attempt to capture the changing times when the vibrant 20th century prosperity turned into decline, representing the original scenery of a downtown shopping district.

PIKADON: A Tale of the Big Blast (1983) is a narrative picture book consisting of 10 pieces of watercolor painting, which was found in the inner part of the storage after his death in 2020. Izuka made PIKADON to dedicate it to his father who had been exposed to radiation in the 1945 atomic bombing of Nagasaki. The 10 depictions released for the first time at Nagasaki Peace Museum are stories of what his father experienced and witnessed just after the atomic bombing on August 9, 1945.

DAYDREAM
March 5 – 9, 2024
Opening Reception: Tuesday, March 5, 6–8pm
Yayoi Yokoyama believes that there is no boundary between digital and analog, aiming to complete a piece of CG art as if she were producing a painting. By superimposing the curves of a real woman’s body on the abstract curvaceous beauty unique to CG, Yokoyama reveals woman’s thoughts and doubts, past, emotions, wounds, attachments, regrets, hopes, elation, pride, etc. that women have acquired through their experiences.
