We are delighted to invite you to join us at this year’s Frieze Masters in London, taking place in Regent's Park from Wednesday, October 15 to Sunday, October 19, where we will be presenting an exceptional selection of Japanese art from the Taisho and early Showa eras (1910–1940).
Among the highlights is White Peacocks and Fatsia by Itō Kinsen, a striking pair of screens that embody the dynamic interplay between tradition and innovation. Another standout is a captivating pair of screens by Kidō Shunpō, rendered in mineral pigments and ink on silk. They depict a tranquil late-summer scene with two chickens resting beneath a peach tree heavy with fruit—an intimate study of seasonal flora and the quiet rhythms of rural life.
We will also be showcasing a remarkable collection of bamboo basketry, an art form that flourished in the 1920s and 1930s, including masterworks by Tanabe Chikuunsai, Maeda Chikubōsai, and Iizuka Rōkansai.
For those with broader interests in Japanese art, our presentation extends beyond this period. You will find an exquisite eighteenth-century screen of white chrysanthemums on a gold ground, as well as a curated selection of avant-garde metalwork, porcelain sculpture, and calligraphy from the 1970s to 1990s. We will also be showing a group of our much sought-after gold lacquer boxes and tea caddies.
If you will be in London during the fair, we would be delighted to welcome you to Booth C-06 to share in the appreciation of these extraordinary works.
