Press Release
Ross + Kramer is pleased to present “Mask”, En Iwamura’s sixth solo exhibition with the gallery, opening January 30, 2025 at Ross + Kramer New York. The exhibition features over 20 ceramic sculptures, including some of Iwamura’s first wall-hanging sculptures.
This latest body of work references the cultural and symbolic significance of the mask. As a child growing up in Osaka, the artist recalls being enamored by the global mask display at the city’s National Museum of Ethnology, showcasing masks from Africa, Asia, and Latin America. In creating these works, Iwamura drew from the deep sense of mystery that he felt upon viewing the museum’s collection and his curiosity about their origins and variety. While recognizing the historical significance of the mask as a tool for religious, artistic, or ritualistic expression, this body of work reflects on their importance in our contemporary, post-pandemic world.
