Ryosuke Imamura: In the Echo and the Margin @ Gifu Museum of Contemporary Art
Summary
The Gifu Museum of Contemporary Art is hosting the solo exhibition "Ryosuke Imamura: In the Echo and the Margin" from April 3 to June 20, 2026. Imamura (born in Kyoto Prefecture in 1982) is known for creating installations that sharpen the senses latent in everyday life through subtle devices in space and artwork. His practice utilizes diverse media, including installations, sculptures, paintings, and videos, often based on everyday events and memories. This exhibition, his first solo show at the museum, will feature a new installation centered on piano tuning sounds recorded in the Daichi Hall (originally built as a concert hall) combined with environmental sounds recorded elsewhere. The spatial composition will incorporate objects, videos, and drawings, aiming to create an "echo and margin" between the everyday and the exhibition, much like the resonance of lingering sounds or the implication of blank spaces in text. Related events, including an artist talk and gallery talks by the curator, are also scheduled.
