Arts
Since meeting at art school two decades ago, Japanese/British painter Christian Hidaka and French sculptor Raphaël Zarka have sustained an ongoing dialogue around common interests in the connected histories of scientific, philosophic and artistic invention that drive various traditions of understanding and representing reality. In this conversation at the Koffler Gallery, the artists will discuss the ideas and visual vocabularies that inform their work. They will also address their recent collaborations that explore notions of perspective, formal innovation and spatial perception, subverting linear histories and disrupting prescribed canons. Presented in association with the Koffler Gallery Summer Exhibition, Peter’s Proscenium: Christian Hidaka & Raphaël Zarka, June 20 – August 18, 2019.
