‍Tribeca where you can realistically experience the “now” of New York culture

Tribeca developed as an office district next to Wall Street, and has excellent access to central Manhattan. It is also known as a quiet high-class residential area where many wealthy people such as Hollywood celebrities and big creators live. Also, along with the development of the area, stylish shops, famous restaurants, and cafes are opening one after another in the city. Furthermore, starting with the relocation of famous galleries to Tribeca, many galleries have expanded and formed the next “city of art.”

Artists active on the front lines are also on display at “One Art Space Gallery”

Tribeca, which is said to be the safest district in New York City, is one of the best locations in the world as a stage for solo exhibitions. The “One Art Space Gallery,” which became the venue this time, has set a mission to create a cultural hub for Tribeca, and is actively developing networks not only in the art field but also with other industries.

Founder and owner Dan Jayla has worked as an assistant to father Joe Jayla. Joe is a person who is famous for being in charge of line drawing for D.C.Comics in the 1950s to 1960s, which was called the Silver Age of American comics, and was also involved in the production of “Batman,” which is world-famous.

When Dan opened “One ArtSpace Gallery” in 2011, he is exhibiting various works by artists active at the forefront of Japan and overseas, such as Sukehiro Nishino, Al Diaz, Andrew Salgado, Takumi Bando, and Robert Whitman.

Five days that won the hearts of New Yorkers

The person who developed the solo exhibition was Mr. Masakata Hage, who embodies the formless motif of “the spirituality that dwells within a person” into an image that can be said to be mystical. Another person is Mr. Kazumasa Hiwasa, who has found the concept of zero in common among the feats of a wide range of ancestors, from the idealism of ancient Socrates to Ito Jakuchu, Ukiyo-e artist, Sharaku, etc., and has pursued minimal expressions of beauty.

Mr. Ushita exhibited 25 works on the universal themes of “what are humans born for” and “where is the meaning of each existence,” and Mr. Hiwasa exhibited 33 paintings that feel the expanse of space that is both two-dimensional yet multidimensional. Both were 5 days that captured the hearts of people in New York, the center of art.
