在弗里泽周的喧嚣和恐慌中，伦敦的斯蒂芬·弗里德曼画廊为日本艺术家高松二郎举办了一场非常精彩的展览。

高松于1998年去世，享年62岁。他是日本艺术界的重要人物，自上世纪60年代初起，他与赤川根培(GenpeeAkasegawa)和中一正幸(NatsuyukiNakanishi)共同创立了“喜红中心”。这三人以用牙刷清洁东京街道而出名，这是对东京为1964年奥运会做准备的清理行动的荒谬挖掘。四年后，他在威尼斯双年展上代表日本，并与蒙哈集团(Mono-ha)联系在一起，他们有一点OP艺术，有点极简主义，但也不是真正的(高松并不在线条之间着色)。

弗里德曼展览的大部分作品来自1973年至1983年的十年，大部分都是纸上的，铅笔上的，水粉和粉笔上的。对形式、色彩和空间关系的探索，都具有粗略的能量和内在的张力。还包括一系列铁制和木制品的雕塑和模型，意图相似。

此次展览还为高松的一幅影子画提供了第二座画廊，其背景是库拉马塔的家具和设计对象，包括他的“玻璃椅”和“库罗塞塞内阁”。几乎准确的同时代人，这对合作在1967年在东京的卡扎多晚餐俱乐部和房间试图捕捉一些空间，可悲地消失了。

Takamatsu died in 1998, aged just 62; he had been a key figure in the Japanese art world since the early 1960s. Pictured: 'Jiro Takamatsu' (installation view)    

He mastered many mediums, including drawing, painting, photography and sculpture – all of which are represented in this eclectic show. Pictured: 'Jiro Takamatsu' (installation view)

Although each series is distinct in theme, they are all imbued with a sketchy energy and internal tension. Pictured: Frame, 1982

Takamatsu also worked with pastel and gauche, exploring routes of enquiry into colour, line, space and form. Pictured left: Frame, 1982. Right: Space No.975, 1981

Takamatsu's practice touched upon various movements, including arte povera, post-minimalism and the Japanese Mona-ha group

The exhibition also gives over a second gallery to one of Takamatsu’s shadow paintings. Pictured back: Three Shadows of a Man, 1997

This is set against the furniture and design objects of Shiro Kuramata, including his 'Glass Chair' and 'Cabinet de Curiositè' (designed 1989, pictured). Pictured: 'Jiro Takamatsu / Shiro Kuramata' (installation view)
