The group exhibition *Taiyo to Ame no Melody (Melody of Sun and Rain)* opened at PALAS in Sydney, featuring new and recent works by artists Maureen Gallace, Trevor Shimizu, and Kazuyuki Takezaki. Curated by the Tokyo-based gallery Misako & Rosen, the show presents a contemplative dialogue between the three artists' distinct approaches to landscape and domestic scenes, running from February 7 through March 28, 2026.
This exhibition highlights the ongoing artistic exchange between Japanese and international contemporary art scenes, facilitated by a prominent Tokyo gallery operating in Australia. By juxtaposing these specific artists, the curation encourages a cross-cultural conversation about memory and atmosphere in painting, solidifying PALAS's role as a significant venue for nuanced, globally-minded projects in Sydney.
