Descripción de la Exposición

Hangar invites two Brazilian artists with radically different expressions and sensibilities. However, what brings them together is they roots and the strength of their attachment to their country. Claudia Jaguaribe, photographer, explores the different facets and antagonisms of Brazil with a contemporary eye and a realistic perspective. Oscar Oiwa, multi-influenced by Brazil, Japan and the United States uses painting and drawing to make us travel into worlds where nature and civilization interconnect in a living disorder. Thanks to the combined talents of Claudia Jaguaribe and Oscar Oiwa, Hangar offers the visitor a particular perspective on landscapes, real or imagined. Black & Light. At Hangar, great recent works composed of imaginary landscapes are exhibited. The light is really important in Oscar Oiwa’s works. Beside his paintings, Black and Light, presented for the first time in Europe, is a 360° installation drawing that offers the visitor an immersive experience. The public is invited to enter the 75m2 ‘inflatable balloon’, and become part of the imaginary universe of the artist. From simple material (black markers and a vinyl surface) Oscar wanted to create an exceptional piece. Realized in New York, Black and Light required 2 weeks of work for 6 people and the use of 120 markers. Oscar Oiwa assembles very different worlds in his paintings and drawings, and combines, coherently, realism and imagination. With great pictorial ease, Oscar Oiwa insidiously suggests a certain tragedy without really showing it. The tones of his palette are vibrant and perfectly balanced. They capture the essence of his subjects. Oscar Oiwa defines himself primarily as a « drawer »; the drawing is always the basis of each of his works. If the human figure is absent from his works, it is because Oscar wants the spectator to be part of the work and immerses himself in it. Oscar Oiwa is a Japanese artist born in 1965 in São Paulo (Brazil). He lives and works in New York. Graduated from the School of Architecture and Urbanism in São Paulo in 1989, Oscar Oiwa is influenced by comics, art and magazines from an early age. He is known for his giant canvases and large frescoes. His work can be found in important collections and is exhibited around the world. Nearly 40 solo exhibitions have been dedicated to his work since 1990, in several renowned spaces and collections - among which, the National Museum of Modern Art (Tokyo), the Museum of Contemporary Art (Tokyo), the Mori Museum of Art (Tokyo), the Phoenix Museum of Art and the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation. In parallel of the Brussels exhibition, a show of the artist takes place this autumn at the House of Culture of Japan in Paris.
