All Stars - RESONANCE

We are pleased to present Soma, Kohei Nawa's solo exhibition at Galerie Vera Munro in Hamburg, Germany.

This exhibition serves as a platform for Nawa to reconstruct past works exhibited in Cell held in 2009 including "Air Cell" and "Dot," while introducing his latest creations "Catalyst," "Plotter," "White Code," "Moment," "Rhythm," "Mol," and "Trans".

The repeated assembly and dispersing of cells that make "soma"—or "body" in Greek—, as they are encoded and decoded between two- and three-dimensional forms and between various materials and techniques, creates a dynamic and ever-changing landscape. This process of transformation, where cells evolve and adapt, gives rise to new materialities and physical sensations, infusing the viewer with a sense of the artwork's energy and dynamism.

Exhibition Period: November 15 (Fri), 2024 - March (TBD), 2025
Opening Hours: [Tue - Fri] 10:00 - 18:00 / [Sat] 11:00 - 14:00

The Poet, The Artist and The Pianist

We are pleased to announce Flare, a group exhibition by Kengo Kito, Daisuke Ohba, and Kohei Nawa at Tiger Gallery™, an art gallery project of Onitsuka Tiger in London, UK.

Intertwining multifarious materials, approaches, and concepts, Flare presents works of a cohesive vision that explore the contingencies of contemporary existence as well as grand narratives that harken back to the universe’s origins. The paintings, sculptures, and installations reflect dynamic interplays of space, time, and light, catapulting viewers into a new dimension charged with both paradox and possibility.

In May 2024, while the artists were conceptualizing the current exhibition, a historical solar flare
occurred, attracting great attention as auroras were observed around the world. Serendipitously, a few years prior, they had jointly presented an exhibition titled Taiyo (“Sun”). In contemplating these connections, Nawa proposed the title Flare for the current exhibition as an homage to the celestial spectacle as well as the artists’ interconnected creative journeys. Much like the sun, which channels ancient energies to illuminate the future, Flare addresses the essence and potential of our era, both present and future.

Exhibition Period: 10 Oct (Thu) - 8. November (Fri), 2024
Opening Hours: [Mon - Sat] 11:30 - 18:00 / [Sun] 12:00 - 18:00

Flare

This fall, "MIRAGE [transitory]," a new performance art piece by Belgian-French choreographer Damien Jalet and sculptor Kohei Nawa, will be presented at the immersive theater THEATER 010 in Fukuoka, Japan.

Their decade-long partnership since 2014 has birthed expressions that transcend the realms of science and myth, sculpture and dance. Expanding the universe of their previous collaborative trilogy, "VESSEL," "Mist," and "Planet [wanderer]," this project enscales their past explorations on a more intimate level. This project will be expanded into a scaled-up version in Switzerland and will tour Europe the following year.

◼︎Concept
The concept of "MIRAGE [transitory]" refers to a visual phenomenon created by the refraction of light by the atmosphere. It is a MIRAGE seen by those wandering the desert of "Planet [wanderer]" in search of themselves, a phantom boundary surface that connects us to somewhere other than here.

This collaboration between the two pushes further to explore the thin and fragile area that straddles opposing concepts—life and death, solid and liquid, ancient and future, harmony and chaos, human and non-human: this search for the boundaries between distinct states becomes a performance itself. Through transformational scenes, various things and matters collide, intertwine, and ultimately melt together. The stage becomes a ‘place of transformation’ where information and matter are fused in an abstract yet emotional way, exposing change being the only constant in the universe.

Conceived like an awaken dream, the piece confront the dancers to various materials, transforming their bodies like the ever-changing weather, or the flora and fauna that undergo constant metamorphosis within them. Set to an hypnotising original score by Thomas Bangalter, Nawa and Jalet embark a very talented group of dancers from different horizons in a fascinating quest of profound transformation, inspired by the ascending spiral of the architecture of the theater itself.

Iris van Herpen - Sculpting the Senses

A new, nearly 5-meter-tall sculpture by Kohei Nawa, Trans-Mio, was revealed at  ONE DOJIMA PROJECT, a high-rise tower complex in Dojima, Osaka. "ONE DOJIMA PROJECT" is a facility consisting of the luxury hotel, "Four Seasons Hotel Osaka," and the condominium, "Brillia Tower Dojima". The sculpture will be permanently installed before the entrance of the apartment section.

This work was born from a workshop in the "ULTRA_Sandwich#18" project, a collaboration between Kyoto University of the Arts and Sandwich. Nawa and students experimented with a 3D scan using an iPhone and captured as a motif a casual pose of one of the participants, "Mio," carrying a tote bag and gazing up at the moon floating in the blue sky. This abstract silhouette looking up gives glimpses of a future where space will be more familiar and diffuses them to a city where various information, masses, and materials are intertwined. The surface form, which combines voxel-like volumes with flowing cloud-like masses, will make passers-by crossing through the urban fabric reflect on what reality is.

ONE DOJIMA PROJECT

Somatic Modes of Attention brings artists Bruno Botella, Kohei Nawa, and Robert Platt together in a mélange of works that engages the viewer with a complex and diverse sensory experience. Three artists reveal how we perceive our environment by applying human vision's ambiguous and intuitive nature in their works. In this modern age dominated by logocentric and excessive visual culture, we ask whether alternative "modes of attention" can be generated by our bodies. The transition of things, including light and shadow, requires us to observe slowly and carefully, focusing on the value of the ambiguous aspects of human perception and cognition. Botella, Nawa, and Platt move us away from the universal and clear observation based on data and into a parallel world of phantasmagoria.

Exhibition Period: May 2 (Thu) - June 1 (Sat), 2024

Somatic Modes of Attention

Around 100 works by a total of 50 rising and renowned artists from Kyoto will be presented at The Echoes of East Kyoto exhibition held at WHAT CAFE, Tokyo, under the curation of "Onidaimyo (a curatorial unit represented by Kengo Kito / Daisuke Oba / Kohei Nawa)." A wide variety of two-dimensional and three-dimensional works by renowned artists and newcomers will be displayed at one venue to give a more profound experience of Kyoto's art scene.

In recent years, the momentum of young artists in Kyoto has continued to grow and shows no signs of slowing down. Young artists fresh out of university become more vital for the local and a global art scene and are drawing attention. Behind the continued emergence of artists with high potential lies a unique art ecosystem nurtured in Kyoto. This results from the loose vertical and horizontal ties among artists created by the convergence of several art universities and the seepage of art into the city through progressive initiatives such as the ARTISTS' FAIR KYOTO and art hotels and cafes.

This exhibition resulted from a genuine connection between artists that transcended generations and social positions. It will be a rare opportunity to reflect on the resonance of Kyoto's artistic energy on an unprecedented scale in the country's capital.

Iris van Herpen. Sculpting the Senses

 

Sculptor Kohei Nawa and dancer Min Tanaka will present their first collaborative performance "From the Edge" at YCC Kenmin Bunka Hall (Yamanashi Prefecture Citizen’s Cultural Hall) in Yamanashi, Japan.

Since the 70s, Min Tanaka has expanded his unconventional and experimental activities in search of the relationship between the body and the world. One such was the Hakushu Festival, which took place in a mountain village in Yamanashi prefecture, where he resided. Kohei Nawa participated in this pathbreaking outdoor art festival in Japan as a volunteer staff member—the experience, he claims, strongly influenced him.

As the information age advances, people’s sense of physicality fades; expressions without embodiment have begun to prevail. Where is humankind headed? Bodies are the first inherent surroundings for all living things and simultaneously a point of contact with the outer environment. Tanaka and Nawa have each paved the way for new possibilities in artistic creation by facing the bodies while vis-à-vis the social milieux of the different classes and strata. The two artists now venture on this theatrical project in Yamanashi, the place of their first encounter.

On stage, the vulture, considered to possess the power over life and death, stands still as if transcending time while universal motifs such as the mud and the fog fill up the space constantly shifting their forms. Viewing the human body and materials as a continuum, Nawa has sought perceptions that arise in the convection caused by the gradient. His works, despite the apparent tranquility, evoke a dynamic time-space where every substance continuously collides and yet harmonizes with each other. A dance will manifest itself between such a locale, Tanaka’s body, and the audience’s bodies; thus, emerges the stage work as an ever-transitory phenomenon—a true representation of waves coming and going from the other shore to this shore. The event (situation) will be presented to the audience engraving an indelible impression on their memory.

Dates/Time: January 10 (Wed) / 18:30 -  (Doors open at 17:45)

From the Edge

We are pleased to present an exhibition of new works by Kohei Nawa at Pace Gallery in Seoul.

This exhibition combines paintings and sculptures from five different bodies of work and conveys Nawa's long-standing interest in art's perceptual, sensorial, and phenomenological possibilities. The title —Cosmic Sensibility— sets the exhibition's central concept —how we are intertwined in the fabric of the cosmos, and is an homage to the artist and Nawa's mentor, Hitoshi Nomura, whose oeuvre questions the relationship between the universe and life.

Nawa's show will begin on the first floor with his mixed-media installation "Biomatrix (W)," where the silicone oil traces the formation and flow of cells. New works from the "Ether" sculpture series, based on 3D modeling of a highly viscous liquid in various stages of descent, will also be presented in this space.

On the second floor, Nawa's masterpiece sculpture series, "PixCell," will invite viewers into the world of proliferating cells. The new works in the "PixCell" series feature peculiar combinations of objects and creatures that reference the history of surrealism while creating new textures in a present moment where technology disrupts the boundaries between reality and virtuality.

The third floor will unveil a new sculpture series, "Spark," finished entirely in black. Its bold and enigmatic appearance of carbon fiber rods and velvet evokes the rifts in reality created by the energy of agitated cells. The same floor will also feature the "Rhythm" series, finished in three shades of gray velvet, exploring the circularity and complexity of the natural world.

The exhibition will submerge viewers in the flow of cells and make them experience the awakening of their own cosmic sensibilities. We hope you enjoy viewing Nawa's contemplations and practices, which extend from living organisms to the universe.

Cosmic Sensibility

 

The new 2024 year is approaching, and we, Kohei Nawa and the Sandwich team would like to express our sincere gratitude for your support this exceptional year.

This year was marked by several local solo shows: starting with a trilogy exhibition, "Project," presented in Gallery Nomart, Osaka, and continuing to Kyoto shows "Cell Field" (TSUTAYA BOOKS) and "From Code to Material" (kojin kyoto).

The 2023 year gave more opportunities to bring more people closer to art. "Ether (Equlity)," a 25-meter sculpture unveiled in the middle of the Seine River in France, became the largest sculpture to date. In Japan, "Ether#98," a new sculpture in the series, was installed in the library of "SHINDO YARDS" in front of Shindo Station in Mie Prefecture; "Cycle," a new artwork representing the circulation of life and energy was revealed on the facade of "Onikuru," a complex facility in Ibaraki, Osaka.

"VESSEL" and "Planet [wanderer]," performance pieces conceived in a creative tandem with choreographer Damien Jalet, continued touring across Europe with new dates coming next year.

This year became a new milestone for "Sandwich," a Kyoto-based creative platform founded by Kohei Nawa. To mark 14 years since its foundation, we have published a studio book dedicated to the platform's activities; as Sandwich is constantly stimulated by the endless circulation of various things, events, and people, this book is made to bring this dynamic experience to inspire other people.

Finally, yet importantly, "Cosmic Sensibility," a solo show featuring Nawa's five long-standing and new series of works, was presented in Pace Gallery in Seoul. Due to the warm critics' response and a high number of visitors, the show was extended to January 20, 2024.

All of this has only been made possible through the endless support of our dear partners and friends.

Wishing you a happy holiday season.

Planet [wanderer]

We are pleased to announce Kohei Nawa's solo exhibition, From Code to Material, that will be held at kojin kyoto, Kyoto.

The exhibition will feature a selection of recent two-dimensional and three-dimensional works: from “White Code,” reminiscent of Morse code and a rain of program codes flowing through a monochrome screen, to “PixCell” and “Prism,” - sculptures based on motifs collected via the Internet.

The top floor's exposition features material samples and test pieces shown to illustrate some aspects of the production process of the works, so the focus shifts from “code” to “material” as one ascends the floor.

From Code to Material

 

We are pleased to announce the publication of a new book recording 14 years of activities of Sandwich - a creative platform launched and run by Kohei Nawa.

The book compiles records of projects and practices spanning multiple fields and genres and contains texts contributed by Kohei Nawa and Sandwich’s close friends and collaborators - experts from various fields and fellow creators. Sandwich’s ceaseless growth is inspired by the flow of numerous things, matters, people, and the interactions between them within the studio. This book gives a glimpse of Sandwich activities and shares its atmosphere.

[Overview]
“Sandwich” is a creative platform run by sculptor Kohei Nawa and launched in Fushimi, Kyoto, in 2009. The platform is based in a renovated building that used to be a sandwich manufacturing factory. Sandwich expands beyond the office studio, where the staff and project members perform a certain set of tasks. It’s a platform that connects a laboratory for experiments with different materials with a factory for developing equipment and tools through a space flexible for various production processes. It serves as a hub for international and intercultural workshops, provides an educational system that brings art students straight to the art scene and is a residence for artists and collaborators worldwide. Just as Nawa's multidisciplinary practice goes far beyond his native genre of sculpture and spans the fields of architecture, interior design, stage art, design, fashion, and dance performance, Sandwich continues to grow, stimulated by the numerous encounters of humans, things, and matters.

Located far from the busy urban center of Kyoto, with the Uji River gently washing the shores of the local rural landscape, the studio became an inception point for dozens of Sandwich and Nawa's works. Although it is nearly impossible to cover all of its activities in one book, we can catch a glimpse of the studio's intense days and the atmosphere of creation it's infused with.

This book has captured and recorded the fragments of Sandwich's activities that have gone beyond contemporary art and influence people, cities, society, and ultimately the world around.

Sandwich

On the occasion of the opening of Kyoto Tsutaya Books (Kyoto Takashimaya S.C.), we are pleased to announce Kohei Nawa & Sandwich's show Cell Field.

Countless works and projects come every day out of the creative platform “Sandwich” in Fushimi in Kyoto, which is run by Nawa. This very place that connects artists, staff, and students from various professional fields is itself a creation inextricably linked to Kohei Nawa.

The current exhibition features various series of works such as “Cell Field,” a painting where oil paint is being transformed and reshaped over several months, a series of prints that express the state of cells through physical simulation, UV-printed works “Ray,” and “Lens.” The exhibition space is also filled with many small three-dimensional works, test pieces, material samples, croquis pads, and other things essential for a creative process in Sandwich that bring a studio atmosphere to an exhibition.

This exhibition explores and shares the world of Nawa's works and how he cultivated time and space with Sandwich.

Planet [wanderer]

On June 28, 2023, Kohei Nawa's public sculpture “Ether (Equality)” will be unveiled on the Seguin Island on France’s Seine River.

Nawa, who partnered with the digital art platform DANAE.IO for this project, was selected to create “Ether (Equality)” in an international competition organized by the Hauts-de-Seine department centered on the theme of égalité (equality). The competition was held as a part of Seguin Island's major redevelopment project with world-renowned architects Jean Nouvel and Shigeru Ban.

25 meters tall, “Ether (Equality)” is one of Nawa's largest sculptures. The stainless steel sculpture, glowing a pale silver pink, is composed of polyhedrons, echoing the polyhedral dome of La Seine Musicale behind it and rises like a beacon leading the way to Seguin Island and its future.

Opening date: June 28 (Wed), 2023 - permanently
Venue: La Seine Musicale
Île Seguin, 92100 Boulogne-Billancourt, France

Ether (Equality)

 

We are honored to present Kohei Nawa and Bruno Botella’s ROLLING THE GRAY MUDS OF DREAM, a two-person exhibition that will take place in MtK Contemporary Art (Kyoto).

This exhibition features Nawa and Botella’s drawing experiments created together and individually. An inherent power concealed in simple materials such as graphite, ink, and paper, comes into reaction with artists’ ideas and impressions and forms a body of works that appears as living organisms undergoing perpetual cell division and attracting an anima to dwell in.

“I realized that just drawing in the middle of the night is the most fun”, Nawa and Botella admit.
Please take this opportunity to witness the series of works that lay the foundation for both artists’ oeuvres.

Exhibition Period: June 16 (Fri) - July 29 (Sat), 2023
Opening Hours: 10:00 - 18:00
Closed: Sundays

Kohei Nawa's new large-scale sculpture to be unveiled on the Seine River in France on June 28, 2023

A 25-METER-TALL SCULPTURE STANDING IN A NEW CULTURAL CENTER OF FRANCE
On June 28, 2023, sculptor Kohei Nawa's 25-meter-tall public sculpture Ether (Equality) will be unveiled on the Seguin Island on France’s Seine River. Nawa, who partnered with the digital art platform DANAE.IO for this project, was selected to create Ether (Equality) in an international competition organized by the Hauts-de-Seine department centered on the theme of égalité (equality).

 



 

A NEW LONG-AWAITED SYMBOL OF THE SEINE IS FACING ITS COMPLETION AFTER CORONA PANDEMIC.
As a new cultural center of France, Seguin Island is undergoing a major redevelopment project with world-renowned architects Jean Nouvel and Shigeru Ban. As a part of the project, the Hauts de Seine department decided to install a large monumental work and held an international competition in 2019 on the theme of "égalité" (equality). The competition called for a work that would respond to France’s Pont de Grenelle Statue of Liberty; La Seine Musicale, the music and performing arts complex on Seguin; and various historic sculptures situated along the surrounding riverbanks.
Nawa teamed up with DANAE.IO, a French digital art leader, to propose Ether (Equality). His works was selected out of 35 proposals from all over the world. After overcoming the rigorous planning and production process in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, the project is now nearing completion on June 28, 2023.

 

RHYTHM AND HARMONY CREATED BY THE SHAPE OF THE DROP
25 meters tall, Ether (Equality) is one of Nawa's largest sculptures. The stainless steel sculpture, glowing in a pale silver pink, is composed of polyhedrons, echoing the polyhedral dome of La Seine Musicale behind it and rises like a beacon leading the way to Seguin Island and its future.
Ether (Equality) is formed by extracting the form of a droplet dripping to the ground, inverting it upside down, and piling it up in a random sequence. The continuous drops of various shapes create a visual rhythm that echoes through the Seine River and spreads it further to the world. Gravity and harmony perform together and come into interplay with Earth.

 

SCULPTOR KOHEI NAWA, WHO IS BUILDING THE BUILDING THE BRIDGE BETWEEN FRANCE AND JAPAN
Based in Kyoto, Nawa has been developing his global activities, and among them, he has established a deep relationship with France.
At "Japonismes 2018" a festival commemorating the 160th anniversary of Japan-France friendship, he presented Throne - a large 10.4 meter-high sculpture decorated with gold leaf inside the Louvre's pyramid, and Foam - an installation using bubbles in the Rothschild Pavilion, as well as a solo exhibition "PixCell- Deer" at the Museum of Hunting and Nature. This was preceded by The Centre Pompidou-Metz’ exhibition "Japanorama: A new vision on art since 1970,” in 2017, curated by Yuko Hasegawa, in which Nawa presented Force - an installation of a black silicon oil pouring down from the ceiling. Vessel (nominated for the 2020 Lawrence Olivier Awards) and Planet [wanderer], two performance pieces created in collaboration with choreographer Damien Jalet, have been performed at the Théâtre National de Chaillot in Paris, the Opéra de Rouen Normandie in Rouen, and other venues around the world. Nawa has also collaborated with fashion brands - COMME des GARÇONS for the 2012SS and ANREALAGE for the 2017AW to produce showpieces for the Paris collections, connecting French culture and art with Japan.

 



 

SEGUIN ISLAND, THE SYMBOL OF FRENCH MODERNIZATION
The theme of "égalité" (equality) appears even more vividly when we look at the history of the Seguin Island, where the sculpture is located.
The Seine River is one of the symbols of Paris. Seguin Island is located slightly downstream from the Notre Dame Cathedral and the Eiffel Tower, both of which are part of a World Heritage site. Since the chemist Armand Seguin, from whom it takes its name, established a tanning factory there at the end of the 18th century, it has flourished as the industrial center of the Seine region. When a large automobile plant was built in 1929, it became a symbol of France's modernization and industrial development. The plant has been the target of criticism for its strict labor standards and environmental pollution, but it has also been used as a base for radical labor unions, and its meaning has been constantly reinterpreted. The plant was heavily bombed during World War II, entailed many casualties, and was then engulfed by the wave of technological innovation after the war, leading to its demolition in 1992.
In 2009, a redevelopment plan was launched with Jean Nouvel as director to revive Seguin Island as a cultural center. This was a large-scale plan that included an art center and office and commercial facilities. In 2017, La Seine Musicale, a comprehensive music facility, was completed and designed by Shigeru Ban, one of Japan's leading architects.

 

KOHEI NAWA
Sculptor / Professor at Kyoto University of the Arts. Born in 1975, Nawa graduated from Kyoto City University of Arts in 2003 with a doctorate in sculpture, and founded "Sandwich" in Fushimi, Kyoto in 2009.
Nawa is a sculptor based in Kyoto, Japan, who has consistently presented numerous series of genre-crossing works, focusing on the "surface skin" of sculpture under his unique concept of "cell". In the past, he has reinterpreted the definition of sculpture in such works as PixCell, where he covers motifs with transparent glass spheres of various sizes to reflect on The Information Age, Direction, a gravity-based painting, and Force, in which silicone oil cascades down to the ground. In recent years, he has been actively engaged in architectural projects such as Kohtei - an art pavilion in Hiroshima, as well as a series of performance works in collaboration with Belgian choreographer Damien Jalet.
