Let me introduce a “curious” group show in LA next week. Masaru Aikawa will hold an exhibition at amala this winter. 👓 Masaru Aikawa http://masaruaikawa.com “Undisrememberable Curios” May 19 – June 9, 2018 Undisrememberable Curios is an exhibition featuring works in which American and Japanese artists analyze, deconstruct and interpret the notion of “subculture” and “counter culture” in the form of contemporary art objects. Because of Japan’s relative proximity to North America’s west coast, the influence of a city like Los Angeles on Japanese underground culture is unmistakable, and the influence of Japanese culture in L.A. is quite noticeable as well. This project examines the notion of “subculture” and “counterculture” as a whole, whether that be punk, rave and metal, anime and manga, hippie and new age culture, pornography and the sex industry, or even the subcultures of visual art. Through the juxtaposition of the diverse works on display, the show attempts to convey how the preoccupations, sensibilities and influences of each artist overlap and diverge within and among the two geographic communities. #Repost @postlaorg with @get_repost ・・・ #Repost @qipoart with @get_repost ・・・ Coming soon to PØST LA.
