Dillon Gallery is pleased to announce the mid-career retrospective monograph of internationally renowned artist and one of next week’s Bifrost Arts “The Cry of the Poor” Conference presenter, Makoto Fujimura.
The exhibition of new works coincides with the publication of Golden Sea, Fujimura’s first major monograph, as well as his biographical documentary of the same name. This exhibit will showcase the monumental Golden Sea series, three large Walking on Water paintings, as well as Messaien, a painting completed in collaboration with pianist Molly Morkoski at Le Poisson Rouge.
On Tuesday May 7, 2013, Dillon Gallery will hold the premiere of Fujimura’s documentary Golden Sea, produced by Plywood Pictures, hosted by producer Ralph Winter (X-Men and Star Trek, etc.) at 7 pm. The documentary reveals the process behind Fujimura’s technique and artistic development through interviews conducted in Japan, New York, and his new Princeton studio.
The artist will be present at the opening to sign books (on sale at DillonPress for $100). Seating is limited for the documentary premiere. Please RSVP at http://goldensea.makotofujimura.com/
