A serene and profound world of expression woven by four artists tackling the theme of achromatic colors

Fuji Gallery Shinjuku, located on the basement floor of Hilton Tokyo in Nishi-Shinjuku, is pleased to present “A-Chroma: Black, White and In Between,” a group exhibition themed around achromatic colors, on view from June 14 (Sat) through July 27 (Sun), 2025. Black, white, and gray are known as achromatic colors without hue or saturation. Works rendered in these tones are characterized by the absence of overt color information, offering viewers a greater degree of interpretive freedom based on their sensitivities and experiences. This, in turn, becomes one of the most compelling aspects of such expressions.

As the rainy season gives way to brilliant sunshine and the city comes alive with vividly dressed people and lush greenery, this exhibition deliberately turns away from color, focusing instead on achromatic works that reveal a quieter, more contemplative visual language. Featuring the achromatic works of four artists—Kiyomi IRIE, Ayumi AOKI, Seiko MATSUSHITA, and Romana Machin TANIMURA — this exhibition invites viewers to explore the quiet beauty that emerges in the absence of color.

By focusing on expressions that deliberately eschew color, A-Chroma seeks to reveal the subtle contours, textures, and the underlying inquiries and contemplations of the artists, elements that might otherwise be overlooked. We hope the exhibition offers a moment of stillness, insight, and renewed ways of seeing.
