KOSAKU KANECHIKA is pleased to present the exhibition “Lai Lai Wang Wang” at the gallery’s Kyobashi location from August 23rd to October 4th, 2025 in collaboration with Hirano Kotoken.

Dealing in East Asian ceramics from ancient times to the early modern period, Hirano Kotoken presents a selection of antique artworks from China and Korea, exhibited alongside works by some of the gallery’s artists: Yutaka Aoki, Junko Oki, Takuro Kuwata, Ataru Sato, Miwa Kyusetsu XIII, Noritaka Tatehana, Ana Benaroya, and Dan McCarthy. The show will present around 20 pieces in all.

In this exhibition “Lai Lai Wang Wang”—the title of which is taken from a Chinese term signifying “back and forth”—contemporary artworks by the gallery artists meet antique ceramic pieces from Hirano Kotoken. Works from different time periods, materials, and contexts come together and reverberate with one another, resulting in an exhibition space where multiple dialogues come and go, uncovering new perspectives at the intersection of contemporary art and antique art.
