Emily in Japan: The Making of an Exhibition
From February 25 to 27, 2022, Gagosian Quarterly presented a special continuous online screening of Emily in Japan: The Making of an Exhibition, coinciding with Emily Kame Kngwarreye’s first ever exhibition in France at Gagosian, Paris. Made by Ronin Films, and directed by Andrew Pike, this feature-length documentary tracks the development and mounting of the Kngwarreye retrospective that toured Osaka and Tokyo in 2008. Featuring interviews with the curators, Margo Neale, a leading Australian authority on Indigenous art, and Japanese critic, curator, and poet Akira Tatehata, the film underscores the historical importance of this museum presentation.
