Yoshida KatsuroTouching Things, Landscapes, and the World
Yoshida Katsuro (1943–1999) began creating works through his combination of objects in 1969 and was one of the pioneers of the movement that came to be known as "Mono-ha" (School of Things). While exploring pictorial expression through experimental methods such as photo-etchings and transfer techniques, he gained attention for his "Shoku" (Touch) series, in which he created organic forms by rubbing powdered graphite with his fingers onto the canvas. This is the first retrospective exhibition to provide a comprehensive look at Yoshida Katsuro's work, featuring many reference materials such as his production notes.

In conjunction with the "Yoshida Katsuro” exhibition, we will focus on the artist Saitoh Ghiju (Yoshishige) (1904–2001), under whom Yoshida Katsuro (1943–1999) studied at Tama Art University. Along with Saitoh's own works, we will exhibit representative pieces by artists who interacted with Saitoh in the 1960s and went on to become active globally, such as Imai Toshimitsu (1928–2002), Sato Kei (1906–1978), and Domoto Hisao (1928–2013). Through materials from the museum’s Saitoh Ghiju (Yoshishige) Archives, we will also explore Saitoh's activities as an artist and an excellent art teacher, tracing his influence that enabled young artists to leap onto the world stage.

Ishida Takashi: Between Tableau and Window
Painter and film artist Ishida Takashi (1972-) has been expressing the proliferating lines and changes of color within the screen through the drawing animation technique of filming his drawings one frame at a time. Having presented his works domestically and internationally, he has recently expanded into installations incorporating three-dimensional elements and canvas paintings. This large-scale solo exhibition of Ishida’s works, his first since 2015, will center on his recent and new pieces in addition to early works and on-site productions.
