Remembrance exhibition Sadaharu Horio 1939 - 2018 Rest in Peace

Artworks by Sadaharu Horio

Today at 2 Dogs Art Space Akashi a small remembrance exhibition has been set up in respect to the passing of the Japanese Artist Sadaharu Horio who resided in Kobe, Hyogo Prefecture which is the sister state to Western Australia.

The Western Australians who came into contact with Horio either personally or  through his artworks appreciated the connection, there is no doubt much was gleaned from such interactions by the artists from the northern and southern hemispheres of this planet.

In the above photographs is a collection of quotidian artworks by Horio that have been acquired from galleries in Kansai or at times he has generously gave them to me, for which I am grateful, they're  good memories.

Please enjoy this memory of Sadaharu Horio artworks now on show

acrylic on canvas

2 panels of 11m w x 1.75 m h

Currently at 2 Dogs Art Space the above painting of Awaji Shima from Akashi is still a work progress for the Doctor.  It has been a difficult painting and the detailing of the artwork is proving demanding, will soon show further images of progress but hopefully it will be completed by Xmas.

Also there is a Xmas exhibition of Western Australian Artists being organised

 and this includes the Wild Swans Art Group 

so things are busy at the moment.

There will be some new Western Australian artists in the Xmas exhibition 

this will be announced soon, thank you again for your continued support and we look forward to seeing you at the art space.

The contribution by woman artists who have resided in Western Australia along with their impact on the present/historical aesthetics of that’s states societal memory has been outstanding and continues to grow into uncharted aesthetic horizons which no doubt will leave a rich legacy for generations of artists to glean knowledge from in the future .

2 Dogs Art Space Akashi Japan has the pleasure in presenting this exhibition of a smallish selection of women artists who work or have worked as artists in Western Australia which is a sister state of Hyogo Prefecture, Japan where the Gallery is located.
