Curator Mika Yoshitake will lead a walk-through of Blum & Poe’s survey exhibition Parergon: Japanese Art of the 1980s and 1990s. Focusing on themes such as abject politics, transcending media, performativity, and satire and simulation, this show will present work in an array of media spanning painting, sculpture, duration performance, noise, video and photography. This exhibition will take place in two parts at Blum & Poe Los Angeles as well as partnering institutions. The work of over twenty-five artists will be presented, including Kodai Nakahara, Tatsuo Miyajima, Kazumi Nakamura, Yukie Ishikawa, Tsuyoshi Ozawa, and Yukinori Yanagi, among many others.
