Toshiko Takaezu: Bronzes at James Cohan Gallery offers a rare glimpse into the artist’s three-decade journey with bronze, blending her Hawaiian roots, Japanese heritage, and Abstract Expressionist influences. From towering organic forms like Tree-Man Forest to intimate Stack Forms resembling river stones, the exhibition immerses viewers in Takaezu’s meditative world. Her bronzes, oxidized to evoke volcanic stone, moss, and celestial hues, invite tactile and emotional engagement, challenging boundaries between craft and fine art. Coinciding with her traveling retrospective, this show reaffirms Takaezu’s legacy as a pioneer of spiritually charged, materially innovative sculpture.
