Between Color and Form
We are pleased to present a solo exhibition by Minoru Kawabata (1911–2001), a pioneering Japanese abstract painter who forged a unique artistic language at the crossroads of East and West. Born in Tokyo into a family of traditional painters, Kawabata studied oil painting under Fujishima Takeji. After moving to Paris in 1939, he was forced by the war to relocate to New York and eventually return to Japan in 1941.
