Hisao Hanafusa: A Unified Horizon

Nov 07, 2019 - Nov 30, 2019

UNIX Gallery is pleased to announce "A Unified Horizon" by Japanese artist Hisao Hanafusa, curated by Andrew Cole. Featuring a survey of works created from the 1960s through the 1970s, this marks the artist’s first solo exhibition with UNIX Gallery. 

Spanning two decades, A Unified Horizon elaborates the possibilities of the horizontal line, using arrangements of tubing and canvas to create patterns that are simultaneously fluid and crisp; visible and hidden. The works often feature metallic, silver tubes, which are separated by colored strips of canvas that are themselves tubular. Hanafusa’s choice to highlight the colored canvas reveals the surface is shaped by a gentle undulation of raw canvas weaving its systemic way through an entire array of tubes; hiding one, revealing another, and so on in a cascading symphony.
