AISHONANZUKA presents Shinji Ogawa’s first major solo exhibition ‘Mirror’ in Hong Kong.
Ogawa’s pencil works attracted a great deal of attention from the art world in his solo show at Art Basel Hong Kong 2013 so that all the works were sold out on the VIP preview day.This exhibition offers mainly the works which are much larger in scale than Ogawa’s past works including about ten new pencil works displayed to the public for the first time.
Ogawa has consistently dealt with the theme that “What is the world?” and “What is the meaning of space and time for us?” In this exhibition ‘Mirror’
Ogawa presents contradictory ideas and images in one screen at the same time such as “Same, but different”, “Symmetry, but asymmetry”, “One, but two” and so on. There is unintentionally depicted an ambitious vision which shakes our consciousness, awareness and logic themselves and includes lots of cognitive-scientific mystery.
Ogawa’s art pieces are all drawn with only pencils on paper. Viewers would be attracted by Ogawa’s unique concept which is represented on the precise and tranquil black-and-white screen.
A reception party will be held on 21st March with a presence of the artist. We are sincerely looking forward to you visiting our gallery.
