Kour Pour 'Points of Entry'

KOTARO NUKAGA Roppongi is pleased to present ‘Points of Entry‘, a solo exhibition by Los Angeles-based artist Kour Pour, from September 26 to November 8, 2026.

The exhibition presents new works from “Poly Painting”, a series in which the carpet’s structure is rendered in paint and traditional patterns from many regions are layered onto one plane. For Pour, no pattern, technique or name has a single source. Rolled up in carpets, borne on ocean currents and westerly winds, passing through translation and back – the routes images have traveled, and the shifting positions of their points of entry, are set side by side on one surface.

Born in Exeter, UK, in 1987, Pour grew up with a father who had left Iran for Britain to trade carpets, and has continued to work through the form of the carpet.

Named to Forbes’ 30 Under 30 in Art & Style in both 2015 and 2017, Pour showed at the Tokyo Metropolitan Teien Art Museum in 2017 and held a solo exhibition at the Aga Khan Museum（Toronto / Canada）in 2025. This is his first presentation at KOTARO NUKAGA since the 2024 two-person exhibition ‘Myth In Motion’.
