Tomio Koyama Gallery Kyobashi is pleased to present Existence within definite contours, an exhibition by Kishio Suga.

Suga has held exhibitions of new works at our gallery for 10 consecutive years since 2015, including Intentional scenic space (2015), Divided orientation of space (2017), Expanded self-space (2018), Measured divisional entities (2019), Released scenic space (2020), Gathered (2021), Not being present, not being absent (2022), Neither things nor sites (2023), and There is neither such thing as being, nor such thing as not being (2024). This year, Suga will present his first exhibition at our new space in Kyobashi, titled Existence within definite contours (2025).

At the Kyobashi gallery, Suga will exhibit new sculptures and installations, while the Roppongi and Tennoz spaces will also hold concurrent exhibitions of his work. In Roppongi, drawings from the 1970s and 80s and small three-dimensional works from the 1980s through 2000s will be exhibited. Meanwhile, the gallery in Tennoz will showcase activation videos, photographs, and drawings, as well as a series of works using paste on slate from the 1990s.

The catalog, which is published annually, features a special contribution from Simon Groom, Director of the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, who curated a two-person exhibition by Suga and Carla Black (2016) and wrote a text for the catalog of Suga’s solo exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo (2015).
