“HANGA” Tomoo Gokita + Sanya Kantarovsky at SHOP Taka Ishii

SHOP Taka Ishii Gallery is pleased to present “HANGA” Tomoo Gokita + Sanya Kantarovsky, from May 7 to Jun 19, 2022. The title “HANGA” means the art of printmaking in Japanese. 

Both artists have been indulging in the painterly exploration of oneiric human figures, wilfully engaging or altering artistic or historical references in their own signature styles. Through various printmaking craftsmanship on different paper supports, all produced in limited editions, Gokita’s paintings in soft tones are transmitted in precise details, while Kantarovsky’s painted compositions replete with satire and sensations converse with the tradition of Edo-period woodblock prints. We invite you to take this chance to view the masterful printmaking techniques and their dialogues with the prominent body of works of the artists.

Gallery address: Bo Fung Mansion, No. 1 St Francis Yard, Wan Chai
