SUMMER EXHIBITION
Aiko Tezuka, Rikuo Ueda, Shingo Yoshida
Dear friends of the gallery,
We cordially invite you to the summer party of Galeriehaus Hamburg on 11.08.2017. Together with our gallery colleagues Kerstin Hengevoss-Dürkop and Nanna Preußners. Starting from 18:00, we look forward to an evening with many guests, exciting art, enchanting music and summery drinks!
We are particularly pleased to present a small selection of works by three of our artists: Aiko Tezuka, Rikuo Ueda and Shingo Yoshida.
Certainty / Entropy (England 6) by Aiko Tezuka is a recent textile works. The artist used a tapestry table runner from the 16th century as a model, into which to embroider signs of our time with golden threads - among them the symbol for radioactivity as well as logos of credit cards. Past and present, floral and commercial, colourful foreground and golden background interweave to form a single web of time. The work was previously exhibited at the National Art Center, Tokyo, Japan in 2015 and Contemporary Art Korea, Gwacheon, South Korea in 2016.
New etchings by Rikuo Ueda, as well as a recent wind drawing from this year will be exhibited. After his participation in the large Disegno exhibition at the Staatliche Graphische Sammlung in Dresden, the artist continued to attract the interest of the art world. The artist is currently represented in the Sinclair House in Bad Homburg in the exhibition "After Nature". And the Staatliche Graphische Sammlung in Munich has just acquired one of his paintings.
Finally, Shingo Yoshida encourages us to journey to the centre of the earth. The artist's video "Journey to the Center of the Earth" from 2014 directly alludes to the 1864 science fiction novel of the same name." And like the novel's protagonist Professor Otto Lidenbrock - who, incidentally, is a native of Hamburg - Yoshida also begins his journey in Iceland. So much for the similarities. You will find out where Yoshida discovers the centre of the earth on 11.08.2017 at the latest.... show less
