Mexican artist Jose Dávila will have his first full-scale exhibtion in a Japanese museum, 'Jose Dávila: I prefer to see with closed eyes - in conversation with Joseph Albers’ at the Museum of Modern Art, Gunma, Takasaki, Japan, on view 1 March through 6 April.
Since the 2010s, Dávila has repeatedly drawn on the series Homage to the Square by Josef Albers (1888-1976), one of the most important abstract artists. The exhibition will show Albers’ exploration of form and color, which has fascinated people throughout the ages as well as Davila’s challenge to create new art through conversation with the art history. The exhibition space, designed by the artist himself, will be a tribute to Albers, and will also resonate with the architectural space designed by Arata Isozaki (1931-2022) using the cubic element as a motif.
