Ryu Takeda “Miner’s Fog”
Upcoming
2026/7/31 Fri. ～ 2026/9/19 Sat.
KOSAKU KANECHIKA is pleased to present Ryu Takeda’s solo exhibition “Miner’s Fog” at our Kyobashi gallery from July 31 to September 19, 2026.
This exhibition presents paintings, the artist’s primary medium in recent years, together with ceramic works, another medium that plays a vital role in his practice. While Takeda’s paintings remain the core focus, wall-mounted reliefs and three-dimensional works are also interspersed throughout the gallery, creating a composition that traverses the boundaries between two and three-dimensional forms.
For Takeda, ceramics is not merely an experimental medium―it is an act that reaffirms the physicality essential to his paintings. Takeda, who has been very familiar with the use of clay since his childhood, notes, “Even when I am painting, I somehow get the feeling that I am molding.” True to this feeling, in addition to the drawings he creates in preparation for his paintings, he also keeps personal notes in which he records the tactile feedback and sense of volume he experiences when carving clay. These notes capture the pure sensations he feels with his hands as he sculpts forms, and not a preconceived image of the finished work.
We cordially invite you to Ryu Takeda’s solo exhibition “Miner’s Fog,” featuring approximately fifteen new paintings and ceramic works.
