A Rose Is

Exhibition at the FLAG Art Foundation

FLAG Art Foundation
545 W 25th St #9
New York, NY 10001

On view from February 27, 2025  through June 21, 2025

Opening reception: Thursday, February 27, 6-8 PM

“The FLAG Art Foundation is pleased to announce A Rose Is, an expansive group exhibition that examines the ubiquity and multivalent meaning of the rose throughout art history and visual culture. Across a wide array of media, including video, sculpture, painting, and text, the exhibition considers the rose in all of its symbolic and ritual complexity, ultimately seeking to complicate our familiarity with it as a vehicle for consumption and desire.”

Arakawa’s painting And/Or in Profile No. 2, 1974, will be presented alongside artists including Cy Twombly, Louise Bourgeois, Andy Warhol, Lee Krasner, George Platt Lynes, and others. As the exhibition suggests, the literary and linguistic life of the rose is perceived within this juxtaposing piece. Please join us in defining what #ARoseIs.

Shusaku Arakawa (1936-2010) was born in Nagoya, Japan and attended the Musashino Art University in Tokyo. Renowned for his paintings, drawings, and prints, as well as his visionary architectural constructions, Arakawa, was one of the founding members of the Japanese avant-garde collective Neo Dadaism Organizers and was one of the earliest practitioners of the international conceptual-art movement of the 1960s. After moving to New York from Japan in 1961, Arakawa produced diagrammatic paintings, drawings, and other conceptual works that employed systems of words and signs to both highlight and investigate the mechanics of human perception and knowledge. Throughout the following decades Arakawa continued to exhibit at museums and galleries extensively throughout North America, Western Europe and Japan with works that grew in scale and visual and intellectual complexity.　linklinklink
