Soka Art is honored to invite top Mandopop lyricist, Vincent Fang, to showcase his solo art exhibition–The Artist’s Way of Vincent Fang–for five weeks from August 12 to September 16, 2023 in Taiwan. Fang will be attending the opening ceremony in person at 4pm on August 12. Titled The Artist’s Way of Vincent Fang, the exhibition aims to explore stereoscopic characters through Fang’s creative philosophies and styles by featuring Punk Cat, Steampunk Style, and other figures in the series. Fang’s bold attempts at combining different media have opened new possibilities for installation art, creating more symbolic art forms that are distinct from traditional textual expressions.

For its 2023 annual art exhibition, Soka Art Taipei is honored to invite internationally renowned contemporary ink painting artist, Tai Xiangzhou. His renowned series “Celestial Tales” is collected by Elon Musk, Yahoo! founder Jerry Yang, and esteemed art institutions, such as the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Museum of Fine Arts Boston, Harvard University Sackler Museum, and Seattle Art Museum. Moreover, he is the first living artist from Asia whose works were acquired by the Asian Art Department of the Art Institute of Chicago in its more than 140 year history. The exhibition titled “River Map - Tai Xiangzhou Solo Exhibition” will present his latest series of works, “Kunlun” and “Galaxy”, which are based on the themes of water, the universe, and Taoist philosophy. The exhibition will run for four weeks from July 8th to August 5th, 2023.

Soka Art is proud to announce its launch of a large-scale solo exhibition for NKSIN, the most popular and rising artist in the international art community. This will be NKSIN’s first exhibition in Taiwan since his successful, sold-out solo exhibition at the 2022 Taipei Dangdai last year. For three weeks from 2023/5/13 to 2023/6/3, the exhibition UNRELATED will be showcased at Soka Art Taipei and Tainan, featuring art with the themes of conflict, division, and competition. The artist creates and criticizes these conditions through their unique interpretation.

2023 marks the third year of collaboration between Soka Art and the popular Japanese artist Maho Takahashi. With a sense of childlike fun, Maho’s artworks often feature digital girls in various poses with backgrounds consisting of gold foil, a traditional symbol of Japanese art. The artist ingeniously mixes classical and contemporary elements in a vividly contrasting art style that has been impressing many collectors.

What KAWAI has created is a world without adults, real pressure, nor growing pains - a land of fantasy called childhood that shuns the real world forever; a kind of simplicity and kind-heartedness that humans yearn for.
