Kota Ezawa
New Publication:
THE CRIME OF ART
Kota Ezawa
Published in accompaniment to the exhibition at SITElab by Radius Books.
The exhibition is accompanied by a new publication, published by Radius Books, which surveys Ezawa’s career using crime as a topical lens. The publication draws connections between recent works, including those on view in the SITElab exhibition, as well as earlier series that contemplate crime, including the animated films The Simpson Verdict (2002) and The Unbearable Lightness of Being (2005), and the ongoing drawing series The History of Photography Remix, which includes hand-drawn recreations of historic crime scene photography.
