Sachiko Adachi, active in Japan between 1946 and 1993 was a visionary Japanese artist and a dear friend of the owner of Mitsuido Gallery. Starting in October 2023, we are excited to announce the exhibition “Sachi, Harmony and Beauty,” which will feature most of her works, at our gallery. Adachi’s artistic journey was a fascinating one. Her works encompassed various forms of art, ranging from illustrations to paintings and even objects such as pots and cups.
What set Adachi apart was her unique approach to creation. She had an uncanny ability to draw without overthinking, often producing her works quickly and intuitively. Her artistic evolution was remarkable as well, as she underwent a radical transformation in style during her lifetime. She transitioned from creating colorful and intricate paintings to embracing simplicity through her brush strokes, all in pursuit of harmony and beauty.
For Sachiko Adachi, art was not merely a form of expression; it was a means to understand and communicate with the universe. We invite you to explore her remarkable journey through her artworks at our gallery, starting this October 2023.
Modern fine art seems to be mostly works that conceptually express the ego and self-assertion, but my work has no ego or self-assertion at all. It is a work that uses waves as art, pursues only the essence, and is completely undirected. Space is art. I would like to continue to explore the essence of the universe through art.
