At Artglorieux GALLERY OF TOKYO, operated by Daimaru Matsuzakaya Department Store on the 5th floor of GINZA SIX, a group exhibition 'eyes' by four emerging artists will be held.
Dates: June 11 (Thu) – June 17 (Wed), 2026
Opening hours: 10:30 – 20:30 (closes at 18:00 on the final day)
Beyond your gaze, a silent dialogue emerges.
This exhibition 'eyes' is an attempt by the four artists—Gekoru, Samehoshi, Yuten Shimomura, and 100nen—to question the 'location of the gaze' discovered through the act of painting.
The motifs here are not mere fictional forms. They are an accumulation of earnest perceptions of how artists gaze at the world and transform that look into brushstrokes.
The pupils the artists have pierced into the canvas speak for the painter's perspective, silently but powerfully piercing the viewer's presence.
We constantly ask ourselves whether, while thinking we are looking at the works, we are actually exposed to the gaze of others residing within the works.
At the moment when the artist's 'eyes' fixed on the painting intersect with our own 'eyes,' the flat surface gains depth and begins to stir unexpected emotions and memories. This intersection of gazes is the theme of the exhibition, creating a space of pure communication without words.
In this space where four different 'eyes' intersect, what emerges at the boundary of pleasure and discomfort in seeing and being seen?
Please experience the texture at the venue.
