November 2026: Isshin Tanizaki Solo Exhibition

Isshin TANISAKI

谷﨑 一心

Isshin Tanisaki works with the theme of "life's energy and circulation," painting vortices—combinations of color and texture that symbolize energetic motion—to embody vital force on the canvas. Since the early 2000s he has shown landscapes made from dense fields of fine dots, the very origin of his vortex motif. By positioning the vortex as a primordial form underlying all phenomena, and rendering vortex worlds in a minimalist way, Tanisaki reflects on the energy that generates life itself and on the formation of our everyday world and the cosmos.
