About the Exhibition

Featuring two artists, contemporary and from the museum's collection, this exhibition will provide a reading from a single perspective. The exhibition introduces the work of Koganezawa Takehito (1974 - ), who has developed a diverse range of media from painting to video and three-dimensional works, and Sano Shigejiro (1900 - 1987), whose work in book design and illustration with unique hand-drawn text and line drawings is as beloved as his oil paintings. How does "drawing," rendering an image with lines, differ from illustration? What is the sense of movement brought about by the sequence of images? This exhibition will explore the boundaries of two-dimensional expression, focusing on the colors and lines created by the artist's hands and eyes.
