We are happy to announce the opening of the exhibition ARAKAWA: A Line Is a Crack at Castelli Gallery 24 West 40th Street, New York, on September 7th, 2023.
Arakawa: A Line Is a Crack focuses on Arakawa’s work from the 1960s. After a period in the late 1950s in which Arakawa was active in the Tokyo avant-garde art circles, he arrived in New York City in December 1961. He soon joined the other young artists in the city, including Jasper Johns, Robert Rauschenberg, and Robert Morris, whose works were largely influenced by Marcel Duchamp. The exhibition reflects the liveliness of the New York art scene at the time, as well as Arakawa’s aspiration to think of painting in a new way.
