AUN: The Fleeting on Mind
Jul 4, 2026 — Aug 8, 2016
Tokyo International Gallery is pleased to announce “AUN: The Fleeting on Mind”, a group exhibition by Banri Takada and Yuuta Takada, on view from Saturday, July 4 to Saturday, as part of an ongoing project “AUN.”
“AUN” started in 2022 as an ongoing project that seeks to rethink the “exhibition” through the flat collaboration of its players. Now in its second iteration, the project relaunches with an expanded vision — expanding its original concept of the flat collaboration between the players beyond a single exhibition to the art world at large— with the aim of serving as a point of entry into the art world for emerging artists.

NOTES
This exhibition focuses on Banri Takada and Yuuta Takada, twin artists whose work is inspired by scenes that have left an impression on them in daily life. What is expressed in their work, however, is less the objective appearance of a scene than the subjective experience of encountering it. Even when looking at the same scene, the way it appears changes depending on the viewer’s state of mind and emotions, and the same impression is never formed twice. What these artists seek to capture, one might say, is precisely such unrepeatable moments.
Today, recording and sharing what catches our eye or stirs an emotion is hardly unusual. When something moves us, it has become second nature to reach for our phones, take a photo, and post it to social media with a caption. And yet most of these images are almost immediately swallowed up by the torrent of information, swept away, and forgotten. The act of preserving a fleeting moment on canvas through a time-consuming method of oil painting might be read as a small resistance to the ever-accelerating cycle of consumption and forgetting.
