Izumi Kato, Visible, Perrotin, New York, 2023


front cover

There's a weird kind of off-kilter feeling, but yet somehow right, about these pages of almost diaristic collages by the Tokyo & Hong Kong-based painter Izumi Kato (b. 1969). The eerie solitary extraterrestrial heads and figures that are a feature of his painting & sculpture practice, emerge here in the pages of this accordion. Visible, invisible, unseen, seen, and unseen — a map for a different future.

14 double-sided pages, individually 7" x  4.5", and when unfolded 5' 3".
