Nanzuka is pleased to present “A Ripple in Time,” an exhibition project by American artist Daniel Arsham. The series marks the third installment of Arsham’s collaborative art project with The Pokémon Company following the shows “Relics of Kanto Through Time” held consecutively at Nanzuka and Parco Museum Tokyo from June to August 2020, and “Time Dilation” at Perrotin, New York in January 2021.

“A Ripple in Time” consists of five exhibitions. In addition to a showcasing of works in Nanzuka’s three gallery spaces, a public art piece will be presented at Roppongi Hills’ 66 Plaza, as well as an installation in Isamu Noguchi’s indoor stone garden in the Sogetsu Plaza on the first floor of The Sogetsu Kaikan designed by architect Kenzo Tange. At Roppongi Hills, a total of six Pokémon will be displayed to the public for around a one-month period in the form of large-scale bronze sculptures, while Nanzuka Underground presents the animated artwork “A Ripple in Time” by Pokémon x Daniel Arsham, born through the artist’s collaboration with Kunihiko Yuyama (General Director of Pokémon the Series broadcast in 1997, who continues to oversee the efforts of his successors as Creative Supervisor of the anime franchise).

This project was produced over the course of two years at the strong request of Arsham himself. From organizing the plot to the scene-setting, determining which Pokémon and characters appear, as well as the storyboards and finishing process, the production team led by Arsham and Director Yuyama was communicated numerous times online to create a novel work of art. Furthermore, the production of the animation led Arsham to produce a series of paintings. A variety of paintings on the theme of "intermixed passages of time" will be showcased, including those depicting crystallized Pokémon discovered within a giant cave, and those inspired by scenes from the animation. In addition, a selection of new three-dimensional works will be exhibited at The Sogetsu Kaikan, making use of the unique space of Isamu Noguchi's indoor stone garden, while Arsham’s drawings, which can be considered as the origin of his oeuvre, are presented at 3110NZ.
