Takeshi Murata: Infinite Doors
Empty Gallery is proud to present Takeshi Murata: Infinite Doors, the LA-based artist’s first solo exhibition in Asia. Although in recent years, Murata has become renowned for his series of surrealist CG still lifes, Infinite Doors focuses on the spiritual core of his artistic practice: the moving image. Spanning a decade-plus between 2004 and 2016, the exhibition surveys the full range of the artist’s work: from early found footage experiments — seminal datamoshing videos such as Monster Movie, 2005 and Untitled (Pink Dot), 2006 — to his most recent work with CG animation. What emerges is a portrait of an artist deeply immersed in the American cultural subconscious, while following an aesthetically seductive practice that belies a profound knowledge and engagement with experimental cinema. Infinite Doors has been designed in close collaboration with the artist as an experiential exhibition format, which serves to amplify the thematics of Murata’s work and the perceptual intensity of his films.
Opening Party
