This exhibition (2012/08/20-25) by Koguchi Aya (小口あや) at Steps Gallery consisted of paintings in the style of the one featured below.  The pictures seemed to me to be somewhere between surrealism and the reality of a mysterious forest.  この展示会は、シュールレアリズムとミストリ森の中間と思いました。 結構面白い展示でした。

Eric Pelletier Exhibition at Art Space Rondo (アートスペースロンド) - (2012/08)

This exhibition (2012/08/20-25) by Eric Pelletier at Art Space Rondo (アートスペースロンド) consisted of paintings on older materials (see photos below).

What I liked about this exhibition is how the artist didn't completely paint over the surface, but let his new paintings mix with the images (wood grain, previous printing, etc.) of the material being painted on.  この展示会は、古い板の上に新しい絵を描いてある。 古いの物と新しい絵の混ざりは、結構面白かった。  (Video/動画: [A], [B])
