YOD Gallery is pleased to announce the solo exhibition of Masashi Hattori, “A RI GA TO U◯YOD Gallery◯U TO GA RI A”.

 

Masashi Hattori has been presenting a variety of sculptures with "people" as a motif, with the theme of pursuing the universality of humanity.

 

This exhibition will commemorate the closing of YOD Gallery's Shinmei Building space, and will be held in the gallery space itself, which has hosted a variety of exhibitions since its opening in 2008. Using the technique of woodblock prints, Hattori will attempt to transform the entire space by carving an entire wall surface as a woodblock and printing it on Japanese paper to create a work of "Thank you," which has been one of Hattori's themes since the gallery's opening.

 

The history of the building and the memories of many people are engraved in this space. This exhibition will express "Thank you" for the past 15 years by looking at and touching every corner of the building in anticipation of new discoveries. We hope that you will join us in witnessing the gallery, which is both an exhibition space and a production site, until the final moment when the curtain closes on the history of the building.

 

We hope you will take this opportunity to visit the exhibition.
