In Anticipation

Kazuna Taguchi

7 March–18 April 2026

Kazuna Taguchi’s In Anticipation surveys Lucio Fontana’s 'Spatial Concept, Expectation' series (1958–1968). Fontana’s “slashes” punctured the canvas, disturbing the surface and opening it toward something indeterminate.

For Taguchi, the infinite dimension Fontana gestures toward is approached through photography. The slashes operate as apertures, not as revelations but as sites of attention – moments where looking is slowed and deferred. In the darkness of each scar, the image does not disclose itself. It remains held, suspended, in anticipation.
