MEGUMI OGITA GALLERY has introduced artists who use traditional techniques and materials along with their originality, as well as those who directly convey their passion for expression, such as graffiti, since its establishment in Tokyo in 2007. There were works with outstanding attention to detail even in pre-modern Japan, where the term “fine art” did not exist. Japanese craftsmanship was sublimated into a rich expression by their commitment, resulting in a unique world, taking Buddhist statues as an example. The artists’ desire was not to stay with conceptual novelty or realistic technique, but to share with the viewer the surprise and enjoyment of encountering their work by honing the skills to bring out the appeal of the shape, even if the motif was familiar. We hope to showcase a wide range of expressions that move the heart with modern and contemporary Japanese artists in this genealogy, as well as international artists who have something in common.
