Indepth Arts News: "Takehito Koganezawa" 2004-07-22 until 2004-08-28 Haunch of Venison London, , UK United Kingdom
Takehito Koganezawa has been selected to show at distinguished group shows and video festivals throughout Europe and Asia since 1997.
His work could also be seen at Manifesta 4, the fourth edition of a European biennial in Frankfurt, Germany in 2002. He is represented by (Gallery) Wohnmaschine in Berlin. The artist works primarily with video and drawing, referring to video as his "brainwork", and to drawing as his "musclework".
Koganezawa's videos often originate from live performances and include the artist as an actor/participant. His drawings are simple coloured pencil lines on large white paper backgrounds.
Converging recognizable objects with abstract fragments, his drawings invoke a surrealist mood. And though surrealist, the artist maintains a light, humorous edge throughout all of his work.
