Saturday ArtWalk: Koji Kamoji. Silence and the Will to Live
Guided tour in English

Zachęta – National Gallery of Art
entry included in the ticket price

Koji Kamoji's exhibition is a show which is supposed to be experienced rather than guided through. This Japanese born artist, who has been based in Poland since 1959, should be set in a broad context of Polish art, of universalistic modern art, but also Japanese art, with its aesthetics and values. The upcoming ArtWalk will be focused on Kamoji's philosophical and existential look on art, as well as on a metaphysical goal — to reveal the truth that existence, even the most harshest one, is always determined by the will to live. 

guide: Zuzanna Zasacka

    Koji Kamoji
    Silence and the Will to Live

    This will be the retrospective presentation of the rich heritage of the Japanese artist Koji Kamoji, who has been living and working in Poland since the 1960s. It comprises paintings, drawings, installations, spatial objects (including minimalist and ascetic works), as well as abstract compositions. Over the years, by carefully selecting the subject matter of his works  Kamoji has developed a catalogue of his favourite and most important motifs.
