Yurakucho Window Gallery 2023<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The “Yurakucho Window Gallery'', which will be held for the third time this year, is a project to exhibit contemporary art at stores along Marunouchi Nakadori, one of Japan's leading brand streets. As part of the "TOKYO ART WALK" art week held throughout the Otemachi, Marunouchi, Yurakucho, and Hibiya areas, this event is held as an event where people can casually get familiar with art while shopping or walking around town, and it has been well received every year.<\/p>\n

This time, the event will be held at eight stores related to clothing, food, and shelter, including the popular caramel specialty store "NUMBER SUGAR" and the shoe brand "Allbirds" that is particular about the "world's most comfortable shoes."<\/u> Eight up-and-coming artists, including Mr. Quayle, participated. Each store's show windows and interiors are lined with highly original artworks that match the image of the store and brand, including sample products and works made from upcycled items scheduled for disposal (Allbirds x Rentarou Kawamoto).<\/u> .<\/p>\n

You can also purchase the works on display that you like, so please enjoy encountering them while shopping or eating on Marunouchi Nakadori.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u25a0Participating artists: 8 people *In alphabetical order<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u30fbYuriko Asano<\/strong>
painter. His paintings are rich in color and full of vitality. Visit various places to learn about the local food culture and plant usage, trace interactions with the people you meet and your own experiences, and create paintings that record what has been passed down in those places. . Rather than simply drawing botanicals, we focus on the wisdom and knowledge that has been passed down in the land for a long time, and explore topics such as the coexistence between humans and nature, which is being lost in modern society, perspectives on living things other than humans, the cycle of life, and women's labor. He publishes works that incorporate an awareness of extremely contemporary issues. Cooperation: SNOW Contemporary<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u30fbRentaro Kawamoto<\/strong>
Born in Kanagawa Prefecture in 1991. Graduated from Yokohama Art University's Textile Design Course and completed research studentship at the same university's Sculpture Course.
Focusing on the production of textiles, he continues to create works with the unique textures and colors of dyeing and weaving, as well as the background and story of the materials, as important elements. The pieces are made using a technique called sakiori, in which ready-made items such as old cloth and clothes are reassembled into new fabric using a loom. We see the potential in the appeal of textiles as a means of expression, going beyond their uses as industrial products, handicrafts, and daily necessities.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u30fbMidori Sato<\/strong>
Born in Aichi Prefecture in 1984. Completed graduate school at Tokyo Zokei University in 2010. Pola Art Foundation overseas trainee in 2017.

His major solo exhibitions include \u201cDiaphanous Petals\u201d (Pola Museum of Art Atrium Gallery, 2019), and he also participated in the \u201cAichi Triennale\u201d in 2016.

\u30fbYumiko Shinozaki<\/strong>
Ceramic artist. Born in Fukuoka Prefecture in 1987. At first glance, the pieces have a colorful and fancy appearance reminiscent of sweets or toys, but the texture is covered with a skin like cracks and bubbles, and although they are made of ceramic, they are vivid, organic, and extremely tactile. The unique shape arouses the sense of unease that comes with encountering something you have never experienced before, and at the same time stimulates the viewer's curiosity and stimulates their creativity. Cooperation: SNOW Contemporary<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u30fbIsao Sugiyama<\/strong>
Sculptor. After graduating from the Department of Sculpture at Tokyo Zokei University, he entered the Carrara Academy of Fine Arts in Italy. After graduating, he will be based in Carrara, Milan, Italy, creating works made of marble and wood. As a Japanese artist, he pursues the relationship between humans and nature, and his works are characterized by a quiet, introspective atmosphere and a sense of reverence for nature and God. He has held solo exhibitions mainly in Europe, and has presented his work at group exhibitions and art fairs around the world. Cooperation: Tokyo Gallery + BTAP<\/p>\n

\u30fbStephanie Quayle<\/strong>
In 2005, he received a Bachelor of Fine Arts (with honors) from the Slade School of Art, London, and a Master of Fine Arts degree from the Royal College of Art, London in 2007.

\u30fbTakuro Tamayama<\/strong>
Born in Gifu Prefecture in 1990. Lives in Tokyo. After graduating from Aichi Prefectural University of Arts, graduated from Tokyo University of the Arts Graduate School in 2015. By combining objects such as furniture and daily necessities created with reference to familiar images, the color tones of images, the rhythm of things, vivid lighting and sound, we create a detailed composition. It represents space. Major exhibitions in recent years include \u201cSomething Black\u201d (ANOMALY, 2023), \u201cArt Collaboration Kyoto 2023\u201d (National Kyoto International House, 2023), \u201cNACT View 01\u201d (National Art Center, Tokyo, 2022), Such.
