Mitsumasa Kadota
Abbey Road

2022

About the Item

Mitsumasa Kadota’s "Abbey Road" (2022) is a vibrant exploration of movement, rhythm, and texture, embodying the artist’s signature fusion of gestural abstraction and material innovation. Through sweeping strokes of acrylic and the distinctive use of carborundum on cotton, Kadota creates a painting that pulses with dynamic energy, evoking both the fluidity of music and the expressive freedom of color. The title, "Abbey Road", immediately calls to mind themes of iconic creativity and timeless expression. Much like the legendary musical influences it may reference, this painting is a visual symphony where bold strokes of deep blues, emerald greens, fiery reds, and golden yellows converge in a rhythmic dance across the canvas. Kadota’s technique of layering and manipulating thick acrylic allows the colors to blend seamlessly while maintaining their individual intensity. The inclusion of carborundum enhances the surface texture, adding a subtle yet distinctive grain that interacts with light, changing the perception of depth and movement depending on the viewer’s position. This interplay between pigment, material, and reflection makes the piece feel almost sculptural, reinforcing its immersive presence. Kadota is a widely recognized artist with works exhibited at institutions such as the Sezon Museum of Modern Art and Lincoln Center in New York. His paintings, known for their innovative approach and deep engagement with color theory and material experimentation, continue to attract collectors and art enthusiasts worldwide. "Abbey Road" represents a moment in Kadota’s ongoing exploration of abstract expression, where he pushes the boundaries of medium and motion. The year 2022 marked a continuation of his evolution as an artist, refining his technique while maintaining the spontaneity that makes his work so engaging. The painting’s balanced dimensions (130.4 × 130.8 cm) allow it to be a focal point in any space without overwhelming its surroundings. In person, "Abbey Road" has a striking presence, characterized by sweeping, elongated strokes that appear to stretch and twist across the surface. The use of rich, saturated colors—blues, greens, yellows, and deep reds—creates a sense of controlled motion, reminiscent of flowing fabric or shifting landscapes. The interplay between sharp lines and softer transitions adds to the painting’s complexity, making it an artwork that offers something new with each viewing. The carborundum incorporated into the layers gives the surface a distinctive tactile quality, enhancing the physicality of the brushstrokes. This textured element is particularly captivating when light hits the canvas at different angles, creating a shifting perception of depth and movement. Kadota’s "Abbey Road" is an exceptional work that captures the essence of movement, color, and textural interplay. Its rhythmic composition, enhanced by its material depth, offers an evolving visual experience that invites contemplation and engagement. A compelling addition to any collection, this painting bridges the realms of contemporary abstraction and emotive storytelling, making it a remarkable piece to own and experience.
