Coming Soon: ‘Yoko Matsumoto: Gazed at by Nature’ at White Cube Seoul⁠ ⁠ Surveying Yoko Matsumoto’s career-defining pursuit of luminosity, ‘Gazed at by Nature’ brings together paintings and works on paper from 1985 to the present day.⁠ ⁠ For the artist, questions of colour, and the ability of painterly medium to transform the canvas surface, to impart lightness and depth, have been her central concerns.⁠ ⁠ ‘In my paintings, darkness could be white, blue, and indeed, pink’, Yoko has noted, ‘where there is light there is naturally always darkness, whether I work in acrylics or oils, I always feel that I am always pursuing this alternation in my work’.⁠ ⁠ 📍 ‘Gazed at by Nature’ will be on view from 18 June to 14 August 2026 at White Cube Seoul.⁠ ⁠ 🔗 Click the link in our bio to learn more about the exhibition.⁠ ⁠ #YokoMatsumoto⁠ ⁠ Images: Yoko Matsumoto, ‘Night’, 2021. © the artist.
