HIROKO KOSHINO

Closed: Tuesday, July 16 / Sunday, July 21 / Tuesday, July 23

KH Gallery Ginza will hold the exhibition entitled “KH Gallery Ginza Gift of Light – Hiroko Koshino x circle side”. KH Gallery Ginza has been loved for seven years since its opening in 2012. For the finale, this exhibition offers a dream-like world with a paper dress created in 2000–2001 and installations of light.
The dress, developed from a plane surface to three dimensions like origami, is one of the creations that Koshino, who has been expressing Oriental beauty in clothes, is deeply attached to. The materials, lightweight like paper, create graceful alterations of straight lines and curves. The exhibition also features installations that project light on the dress, created in collaboration with the art unit circle side. They give off a scenery of flowers spreading at the feet and a haze hanging over. The dress that projects light in the darkness will allow you to experience the brightness of life.
Koshino will continue to create fashion and art that free and empower the secret power within human beings. The scenery of the white dress–reminiscent of the fresh beginning–surrounded by flowers and light is a gift to you from KH Gallery Ginza. Please enjoy it to your heart’s content.

*Notice
KH Gallery Ginza, which has been presenting Hiroko Koshino’s art activities since its opening in 2012, will close after this exhibition. Activities as an artist have been a starting point of all creations for Koshino. KH Gallery Ashiya will continue to present her works and hold collaborative exhibitions with creators in other fields.

We would like to express our sincere thanks for your support over the years.

KH Gallery Ginza will hold the exhibition entitled “Hiroko Koshino x Kazi Ghiyasuddin – Melody of Time”. Kazi, an artist active in Bangladesh and Japan, held the first collaborative exhibition with Koshino in 2016. The experience of working with an artist from different backgrounds influenced both of them and broadened their perspective in their activities. Koshino collaborated with Japanese traditional performing arts and music and successfully held an exhibition in New York. As for Kazi, he held a large-scale retrospective exhibition in Bangladesh last month and received a lot of praise.

In this second collaborative exhibition, Kazi will mainly present paper artworks. His paintings illustrate elaborate expressions using coincidence, which evoke various sounds in the nature. In response to this, Koshino will present abstract paintings, including the large work she created in 2014 and the latest works inspired by music. Flows of paints and freely drawn lines will create a sense of dynamism like a piano improvisation.
The exhibition with an artist who has a unique “sound” is a culmination for Koshino who has been striving to create a world of comprehensive art. Please come enjoy the rich melody created over time.

The 12th Nagauta Kinekatsukai National Competition will be held in the Kabukiza Theatre.

Hiroko Koshino is an accredited Nagauta performer who received the name of Kineya Katsuroku-jo.
At the national competition, in addition to performing “Kanjincho”, she will produce the stage background for the Kinekatsukai’s traditional Nagauta medley “Shokyokushu”. Famous Nagauta songs will be performed with the background of Sumi ink drawings she painted while taking inspiration from each song.
