Hiraki Sawa
Tokyo Opera City Art Gallery
Hiraki Sawa’s semiretrospective “Under the Box, Beyond the Bounds” featured twenty video works, ranging from his signature piece Dwelling, 2002, in which toy-size passenger planes take off and land elegantly inside a gray East London flat, to new installations that expand into spatial dimensions. Also, along the corridor leading into the darkened exhibition area, miniature plaster sculptures from 2013–14casts of an ammonite, a metronome, and a broken teacup, for instanceand drawings for the design of the exhibition itself, also 2013–14, offered clues as to what to expect.
