Press Release

MAKI Gallery is pleased to announce its participation in the Hana sector of Tokyo Gendai 2026 with a solo presentation by Anne Kagioka Rigoulet.

Featured is a new body of work, including a monumental painting nearly four meters wide, that further develops Kagioka’s ongoing Figure-Pair series, which depicts human figures as reflected in water. Through nuanced color that harnesses water’s fluid energy and distinctly sculptural relief, the paintings give form to new relationships and configurations that emerge as two bodies converge and respond to one another.

We look forward to seeing you at Booth H22!
