We're continuing recaps of some great post-summer shows worldwide, like this fantastic Blum and Poe Tokyo debut by LA-based artist Friedrich Kunath.
Live Forever marks the 10th exhibition by the German-born artist with the Santa Monica-founded gallery, as well as his return to Japan for the first time since 2016.
Kunath admitted in a 2018 interview after a year-long hiatus from painting with oils.
As irreverent than ever, Kunath fully utilizes "the aesthetic of Venice beach towel" to make poignant images filled with everyday and relatable feelings.
Friedrich Kunath's Live Forever is open at Blum and Poe through October 19, 2019.
