JIRO TAKAMATSU

11 June 2013 - 20 July 2013
Stephen Friedman Gallery is delighted to announce the first UK solo exhibition of works by Jiro Takamatsu (1936 -1998). As a key member of the Hi Red Center in Japan in the early 1960s, Takamatsu's early work sought to remove the boundaries between art and life and his considerable influence over his lifetime extended as an artist, theorist and teacher in Japanese postwar culture.

The exhibition will traverse multiple media including painting, sculpture, photography and installation including an important group of works on paper and a selection of his renowned 'Shadow Paintings'.

The exhibition will run from 11 June - 20 July 2013.
