Susumu Shingu “Playing on the Earth”
Kobe City Koiso Memorial Museum of Art
This event has ended.
Susumu Shingu is a far relative of successful artist Ryohei Koiso. In this retrospective exhibition, Shingu’s works throughout his lifespan are presented for the first time: watercolor paintings from childhood, oil paintings from his university years, works made in Italy that transitioned from 2D to 3D, sculptures that move by the power of the wind, and original book illustrations, as well as more recent works such as “Breathing Earth”, a diorama of a village self-supported by natural power sources, and models of works currently in progress.
