MISAKO & ROSEN
Overview
Following deceased Dutch artist Daan van Golden’s quotation “Art is not a competition”, the gallery strives to help develop a cooperative, mutually supportive contemporary art world. Based in Tokyo, we represent 31 artists from Japan and abroad; each of whom maintains an art practice rooted in the literal; each of whom does not shy away from humor. In 2019, together with colleagues LambdaLambdaLambda (Prishtina), Lulu (Mexico City) and Park View / Paul Soto (Los Angeles/New York), we inaugurated La Maison De Rendez-Vous, a shared exhibition space in the city of Brussels, Belgium; in 2023, La Maison was presented, at Art Basel, with the Federation of European Art Galleries Association Innovation and Creativity Award. Jeffrey Rosen presently serves as co-president of the board of the New York based non-profit organization, NADA (New Art Dealers Alliance) as well as sitting on the board of the non-profit organization, Contemporary Art Group (Contemporary Art Daily, Contemporary Art Library and Quarterly); Misako Rosen serves as a director of CADAN (Contemporary Art Dealers Association Nippon) based in Tokyo. In 2024, together with colleagues LambdaLambdaLambda, the gallery will inaugurate a second commercial gallery space in Paris, France.
