Requiem For The Sun: The Art Of Mono-Ha

by Blum & PoeLocation: Blum & Poe Date: 25 Feb - 14 Apr 2012
This exhibition examines the postwar Japanese artistic phenomenon  Mono-ha (School of Things), following the solo exhibition of Mono-ha’s  key ideologue, Lee Ufan at the gallery in January 2010. Representing an  important art historical turning point, “Requiem for the Sun” refers to  the attitude of aesthetic detachment and renewal of matter in response  to the immanent loss of the object as a sun in Japanese postwar art  practice. Included in the exhibition are works by Koji Enokura  (1942-1995), Noriyuki Haraguchi (1946- ), Susumu Koshimizu (1944- ),  Katsuhiko Narita (1944-1991), Nobuo Sekine (1942- ), Kishio Suga (1944-  ), Jiro Takamatsu (1936-1998), Noboru Takayama (1944- ), Lee Ufan (1936-  ), and Katsuro Yoshida (1943-1999)…(more)
