Counteraction: Challenges and Responses of Women Artists in Postwar Japan
In Japan in the 1950s and 1960s, female artists initially rose to prominence in the avant-garde art world, supported by movements such as Non-Metal Art. However, the subsequent introduction of “action painting” – a style closely associated with masculine ideals of boldness and strength – resulted in the marginalization of female painters from critical discussions. This exhibition attempts to reinterpret the history of Japanese modern and contemporary art from the perspective of “reaction”, presenting Yayoi Kusama, Atsuko Tanaka, Eiko Fukushima and many other artists who have been traditionally ignored by art history.

Pace Gallery Tokyo: Marina Perez Simão and Tomie Ohtake
Brazilian artist Marina Perez Simão is having her first solo exhibition in Japan at Pace Tokyo, featuring a new series of abstract paintings inspired by landscapes. Known for her vibrant, lyrical compositions that blur internal and external worlds, Simão’s work explores emotion, memory, and place. The works in the exhibition are connected through the use of indigo, a dark hue that has been traditional in Japan for centuries. Her work is in dialogue with the paintings and sculptures of the late Japanese-Brazilian artist Tomie Ohtake, whom she cites as a major influence. Born in Kyoto in 1913, Otake moved to Brazil in 1936, eventually becoming one of the country’s most prominent modernists. Her work uses organic forms and structured geometries to abstract natural landscapes and phenomena.
