*The artist will be present at the gallery on 28,29,30,31 March, 2021.

Five years have passed since the last solo exhibition. Reunion with JOGASAKI and new works after all this time. Though I was worried during the time he was in silence, there was the world that has not changed. The world full of warmth and affection, and the artist who seriously faces art. The painted motifs in the poetic image are pure, quietly, and seem to be fulfilled with happiness to be themselves. It is exactly like the heart of the artist himself.
At the same time, Fukuoka Asian Art Museum holds an exhibition that shows only large works among which mainly new works with past representative works. We hope you visit both of the exhibitions to experience the world of an artist, Satoru JOGASAKI.

"People often asked whether my painting is figurative or abstract.
I only paint what my eyes see. To paint is to pull out the shape lurking behind visible things onto the surface of artwork" This is what Gyoji Nomiyama said who is famous for abstract paintings. Actually, artworks that we think abstract painting are often shapes of objects painted through the filter of the artist's eyes.
Then what makes it an abstract painting? "Cool" "Modern" "Not understandable" People get a variety of feelings from abstract artworks.

By exhibiting abstract artworks from our collection, we want you to consider what artists want to express and to feel the merriment of appreciating art. (Mizoe Art Gallery, Kazunobu Abe)
