The multilateral platform for upcoming contemporary photographers, G/P gallery is proud to start the new decade with the solo exhibition and the book launch of Yumiko Utsu's 'OUT of ARK'.
The photographs of Yumiko Utsu surged in popularity since her stunning appearance at the 26th Hitotsubo Award in 2006. In following years Utsu has been presenting her photographic installation in Pinyao Photo Festival (China), Deagu Photo Biennial (Korea) and Lumen gallery (Hungry), as well as at the world largest photo art fair Paris Photo 08. Le Figaro reviewed her presentation at the fair as "so humorous as unparalleled in the history of Japanese Photography". We believe it is only the matter of time before her rise in the international photography, as it was evidenced with the high repute and expectations for her new works among the photo collectors and critics at last year's Paris Photo.
This exhibition will feature the selection of Utsu's photography from her very early days to 2009. We are very honor to invite you for the beautiful and entrancing world of Yumiko Utsu's photography.
