"Enokura Koji" (2005), an exhibition catalog for Japanese artist Koji Enokura (1942-1995), is a central figure in the Mono-ha movement, which emerged in the late 1960s. Enokura explored the relationship between space, matter, and the human body. His work, which transcended the boundaries of painting and attempted to visualize the dynamics inherent in space through the application of stains to floors and walls and the arrangement of materials, pioneered new horizons in Japanese contemporary art at the time. This catalog, compiled in conjunction with a large-scale retrospective held ten years after his death, comprehensively introduces Enokura's diverse activities, from his early painterly endeavors to installations and photographic practice. In addition to illustrations, the catalog also includes essays and related materials by Japanese and international critics, providing a multifaceted look at the background of his works and their relationship to contemporary artistic trends. More than simply a reevaluation, it reaffirms Enokura's inquisitiveness and the intensity of his expression, making it an important record for confirming his innovative and contemporary work.
