Drawing from media, art history, and popular culture, Kota Ezawa investigates the power of certain images, distilling memories of significant historical moments into their basic forms. Using animation, slide projections, lightboxes, paper cut-outs, and collage, Ezawa transforms complex visual information into its most essential elements, creating striking, flattened versions of photographs and artworks that explore the construction of shared experience through images. Fraenkel Gallery began representing Ezawa in 2023, and his first solo exhibition with the gallery took place the following year.<\/p>\n\n\n
