Takuro Kuwata
Dancing Udon

December 8th, 2022 to February 28th, 2023

THE GALLERY is delighted to announce Dancing Udon, an exhibition by artist Takuro Kuwata (born Hiroshima, 1981). Kuwata is known for expanding the possibilities of ceramics, as an art form in its own right, as a functional object.

A collection of porcelain cups by the artist will be on display and on use at our main art space, where guests can order udon noodles served in his handmade porcelain dishes. THE GALLERY’s owner / chef Hiroki Odo will create three special udon dishes accompany Kuwata’s show.  These udon dishes will be available throughout the exhibition.  On the opening night of December 8th, we will serve a special menu to celebrate the show and the holiday season.

In addition, a selection of sculptures by Kuwata will be on display at odo Lounge, a hidden getaway nestled behind Chef Odo’s eponymous kaiseki counter.

The exhibition is curated by Akiko Ichikawa and presented in collaboration with Salon 94 Design.
