SCAI The Bathhouse
Martin Clark, the director of London’s Camden Art Centre, oversees a new, site-specific project by Nobuko Tsuchiya, a UK-based Japanese artist who is known for her dispersed installations of found objects and sculptural assemblages that play equally upon the enigmatic and the familiar.
ABOUT THE CURATOR
SCAI The Bathhouse
SCAI The Bathhouse was founded in 1993 in a 200-year-old former public bathhouse building in the old Tokyo district of Yanaka, a short walk from Ueno, an area dense with museums and art schools. Representing artists from across a wide range of generations and practices, the gallery seeks to function as a meeting place for various currents of contemporary art from Japan and abroad. To pursue this mission further, the gallery recently opened Komagome Soko, an experimental project space for emerging talents; SCAI Park, which transforms part of a storage facility into an exhibition site; and SCAI Piramide, an outpost in Roppongi for cultivating thoughtful exchanges and further advancing the contemporary art scene in Tokyo.
