Date: 12 Jul - 7 Aug 2011
It has been 10 years since Yuki Inoue began his execution on the subject of various phenomena, histories and cultures observed through the eyes of a salamander. This exhibition marks Inoue's first foray into using gold leaf as a material, as well as a series of smaller works made using high precision technology. These salamander self-portraits (sculptures) represent the artist's outpouring of emotioN and sympathy in the wake of the earthquake and tsunami of March 11.
