Nakazawa Ken's solo exhibition
by ANDO Gallery
Location: Ando Gallery
Artist(s): Ken NAKAZAWA
Date: 8 Jun - 28 Aug 2010

Nakazawa was born in Tokyo in 1970, graduated from Department of Oil Painting and completed the Postgraduate Course, Tama Art University. Nakazawa participated in the group exhibition "MOT Annual 1999: Modest Radicalism" at Museum of Contemporary Art, Tokyo, in 1999, also joined "YOKOHAMA 2001: International Triennale of Contemporary Art" at Pacifico Yokohama, in 2001.

As an installation artist, Nakazawa has been receiving high-commendation for his installations. He composes installations with thin and wispy materials such as wires and nylon filaments, integrating them into a space of respective venues. Since 1992, Nakazawa has been pursuing representations of qualities and nuances of space through his installation works. However, in his solo show at ANDO GALLERY in 2008, Nakazawa exhibited painting works for the first time.

This exhibition, Nakazawa’s second show of paintings, introduces nine new works.
In his previous paintings, the lines evoke wires and nylon filaments, both of which had become such idiosyncratic features of his installations. In his newest paintings, however, the lines appear merely as boundaries of contiguous color. Moreover, the images seem to appear simpler with lesser elements.

Nakazawa’s delicate and faintly tinged paintings suggest his new development.
