Shingo Horiguchi
Kameido Art Center is pleased to present “Polymerization,” a solo exhibition by Shingo Horiguchi. This will be Horiguchi's first solo exhibition at Kameido Art Center in about five years.
In this exhibition, Horiguchi pursues a contemporary reinterpretation of pictorial expression, starting from his own hypothesis that “Paul Cézanne, Paul Klee, and early Cubist artists may have viewed things from both eyes. By focusing on the process in which the human right eye and left eye perceive an object from different angles and integrate them in the brain to form a single image, he attempts to question the conventional view of painting that relies on a single point of view and to present the experience of “seeing things” in a new way.
The title of the exhibition, “Polymerization,” is a chemical term meaning “the complex combination of molecules to form a single substance. Applying this idea to his paintings, Horiguchi weaves together different images digitally to create a structure with ambiguous front-back relationships, which he then paints by hand on canvas or paper to create his own unique worldview.
We invite you to come and see the new visual art of “seeing with both eyes” by Shingo Horiguchi at the exhibition.
In addition, limited edition screen prints created in collaboration with “ZONSHANG,” a graphic unit that explores the possibilities of silkscreen prints, will be exhibited and sold at this exhibition. Please look forward to seeing these works as well.
