Yugo Kohrogi continuing his vigorous activities had his |
|
|
|
|
solo exhibition in
July last year and thereafter participated |
|
|
 |
|
in art fairs in Korea and Taiwan. |
|
|
|
As one
of the artists who keep drawing international |
|
|
|
attention he continues to develop himself. |
|
|
|
This is his second solo exhibition in Tokyo since last year. |
|
|
|
The “l” Series he had continued until last year was very well |
|
|
|
accepted by international collectors. |
|
|
|
We would like to introduce a new series “Smoke”.
|
|
|
|
For Yugo Kohrogi it is another step forward toward another |
|
|
|
internationalstage where, we trust, that he
will play a more |
|
|
|
important role. |

“Fire/Flowers” |
|
|
|
There are flowers where forest fire often breaks out.
|
|
|
|
The heat of flame opens the hulls of flowers dropping the |
|
|
|
seeds onto the earth, and the flowers rooted in the ashes |
|
|
|
of the burnt field will fly far out in the wind, each like a ball of fuzz, |
|
|
|
as if they had a mission of reviving the burnt out earth.
|
|
|
|
In our cycle of living, life and death are one and the same,
|
|
|
|
facing each other.These works of mine were prompted by the
|
|
|
|
sudden death of a person very dear and close to me. |
|
|
|
In the flame are all those who passed on, leaving me behind.
|
|
|
|
This is,however, not a depiction of the sad fact.
|
|
|
|
It is so simple that it can be described as pleasure and happiness.
|
|
|
|
Neither is it just to take things positively.
|
|
|
|
All inclusive,I extract reality like the head and tail of a coin.
|
|
|
|
The name of the flower opened by flame is PROTEA. |
|
| Surely they drift over the smoky earth, just as we ourselves live, |
|
|
|
retracing our memories and floating and roaming. |
