poster for Meiko Anekawa Exhibition

This event has ended.

“Anekawa’s works demonstrate a curious combination of the ability to immerse the viewer into her wonder-world,
but also render them as mere objective perceivers at the same time. The visual tension within her works lends her images a distinctive power.”

“Her compositional perfection shows she is working in the Nihon-ga tradition,
yet her attempt at abstraction also show her attempt of violently breaking away from preconceived notions of art. Anekawa wishes to explore the combination of tradition and the rejection of tradition in her future works as well.”
