Contemporary HEIS is pleased to announce the exhibition of Mokuma Kikuhata's Blue Abyss 1985-2000 at Art Fair Tokyo 2024. Kikuhata was involved in the establishment of the avant-garde group Kyushu-ha (Kyushu Group) and was a highly acclaimed member of the Chuo Gadan (a group of influential Japanese artists in the early 1900’s).
Additionally, he was early to recognize the value of the works of Sakubei Yamamoto, who famously depicted the coal miners of Chikuho in a collection of paintings recognized by UNESCO as having World Heritage status. Kikuhata was an artist who worked independently throughout his life without relying on mainstream trends.
