Group Exhibition 'Materiality and Language: Explorations in Form and Meaning Curated by Esthella Provas'

KOTARO NUKAGA, Roppongi is pleased to present ‘Materiality and Language: Explorations in Form and Meaning Curated by Esthella Provas’ a group exhibition themed around materiality and language which features five international artists, from June 8 (Sat) to July 31 (Wed). The exhibition is curated by Esthella Provas, who is considered one of the world’s most influential art advisors and known for her crucial role in establishing the Museo Jumex in Mexico City, which holds the largest collection of contemporary art in Latin America.

The exhibition inquires into how materiality and language function as core elements of expression and perception in contemporary art, in a society that is very rapidly becoming more information-oriented. Through each artist’s individual approach, the exhibition reveals the extent to which our experiences and perception are shaped by not just the static nature of substances, but also the dialogues formed on linguistic and visual levels. This intersectional approach provides a valuable opportunity to consider how “materiality and language” influence one another, and how this interaction functions within the cultural and social contexts of our contemporary society.
