出品作品について
KOTARO NUKAGAは、4組5名のアーティストの作品を紹介します。有機的で艶かしくもグロテスクな形状の器を作り出す川井雄仁。滑らかな白い肌理と、焼成時の釉着を積極的に取り入れた作品で知られる福本双紅は、現代写真アーティストの多和田有希とメディアの境界を超えたユニットを組みます。井上七海は「線を引く」という単一行為の反復によって、「何かを描く」というイメージの呪縛から絵画を解放させる作品を制作します。
また、伝統に根ざしながらも素材と自身の身体との対話から率直に生まれる痕跡を造形化する新里明士の作品を、 Yutaka Kikutake Gallery協力のもと展示します。
ギャラリーコンセプト
KOTARO NUKAGAは異文化が交差し多様な情報が発信される六本木と、新たな現代アートの中心地として注目される天王洲に拠点を置き、国内外の先鋭的なアーティストと共に独自性の高いギャラリープログラムを展開しています。
アートと社会の曖昧な関係性の上で、アートを成立させる歴史的、文化的、科学的、美学的な文脈にアプローチし、過去を読み解き、今を捉え直し、未来についてしなやかに思索していきます。

About exhibited works
KOTARO NUKAGA is pleased to present the works by five artists (four groups). Kazuhito Kawai creates vessels with organic, glossy, and grotesque shapes. Fuku Fukumoto, known for its smooth white textured ceramics and its active use of glazing during firing, and Yuki Tawada, known as a contemporary photographer, will form a unit that transcends the boundaries of media. Nanami Inoue will exhibit works that attempt to free the painting from being bound to the idea that a painting must need a subject by repeating the singular act of line drawing. With the cooperation of Yutaka Kikutake Gallery, we will exhibit works by Akio Niisato, an artist who attempts to create within a dialogue between his body and the material whilst also using traditional methodology.
Gallery concept
Founded in Tokyo in 2018, KOTARO NUKAGA acknowledges that contemporary art best reflects present-day society and its future. Taking particular interest in the avant-garde forefront of global art, exhibitions at KOTARO NUKAGA explore radical ideas of both Japanese and international artists. Now with three spaces in Tokyo— Roppongi, a cultural hub bustling with new ideas, and Tennoz, a location that is currently gaining traction as Tokyo’s new center of contemporary art— KOTARO NUKAGA continues to establish its name through the expansion and development of its distinctive gallery program.
Through a cross-disciplinary lens integrating various cultural and academic fields, KOTARO NUKAGA’s program aims to continue approaching art through its historical, cultural, social, scientific, and aesthetic contexts in order to interpret the past, capture the present, and imagine a boundless future.
