Kosuke Kawamura Exhibition “Release”

2016.08.17

Kosuke Kawamura's latest exhibition will be held for the second time at B GALLERY. Following the exhibition ``Rebirth'' (2012), in which the artist's specialty collage works were shredded and reconstituted, this time ``Release'' makes full use of copy machine technology and mixes past techniques. and try new expressions.

Please look forward to his latest work, which visualizes the ``another world'' that lies between the world of fantasy formed in the artist's mind from his mid-teens to early twenties, and the real world.

"This exhibition will consist of recent works and new works that will be shown for the first time in Tokyo. I hope that this exhibition will lead to a new step in my future work."
