For the inaugural edition of Gallery Weekend Los Angeles, organized by Gallery Association Los Angeles (GALA) in the summer of 2021, Blum & Poe presents Borders and Identity, a conversation between curators Mika Yoshitake and Kris Kuramitsu on the work of Yukinori Yanagi. This program was presented on the occasion of Yanagi's 2021 exhibition at Blum & Poe, Los Angeles, which explores contested boundaries and the limits of politically and ideologically constructed territories, symbols, and national myths.
