There’s a special chance at Whitestone Gallery this month to see the kaleidoscopic, energetic and downright joyful works of Japanese visual artist Ay-O, who in his six-decade-long career became such a master of colour that he earned the nickname “The Rainbow Artist”. In a show titled Ay-O: Nijitsukai (the Japanese term translates as “rainbow-charming”), expect a multitude of acrylic canvases in every colour of the spectrum.
Until August 10

This month, Villepin opens its group summer exhibition, Liquid Memory, which features works by artists Koji Yamaguchi, Yuri Yuan, Ted Gahl and Travis MacDonald. The show, whose name refers to the fluid and ephemeral qualities of memory, invites viewers to consider the uncertainty of reality. To further warp viewers’ sense of the present, the arrangement of the works takes inspiration from other-worldly architect Ricardo Bofill.
Until July 31
