We are pleased to present an exhibition of new drawings by Tokyo-based artist Susumu Takashima. This is his third solo exhibition in the gallery.

Mr Takashima’s approach to drawing is rooted in a desire to represent the purity of line. To that end, he gives all of his work subtitles, Drawing for Brushes, Ink and Paper or Drawing for Pencil Sharpener, Colored Pencils and Canvas or Drawing for Metal Point and Paper.

In his work, the artist wishes to exclude his own thoughts and emotions as much as possible from the action of drawing.

Susumu Takashima received degrees in architecture and painting from Musashino Universtiy in Tokyo Japan. His work is in the collection of the Ome Municipal Museum of Art, Ome, Tokyo, Japan and the Haneda Airport, Tokyo, Japan as well as many private collections in the United States, Canada and the UK.
