Hiraki Sawa, O

Exhibition
In Person
James Cohan Gallery
533 West 26th Street between Tenth and Eleventh Avenues New York, United States of America

Date: March 1, 2011 – March 26, 2011


Sawa, a Japanese artist based in London, presents an elaborate sound and video installation, comprising a triptych of large projections accompanied by ten small monitors.  A meditation on time, the work pairs views of such objects as a cup or a bell spinning endlessly with scenes of the ocean and the desert.  Some sequences are overlaid with animations of flying birds, fluttering leaves and Ferris wheels.

Gallery hours: Tuesday through Saturday, 10am-6pm
