Oasis fever is hitting Tokyo in a new forthcoming exhibition that features work from the band’s longtime photographer Jill Furmanovsky, as well as collages from Japanese artist and graphic designer Kosuke Kawamura.

British photographer Jill Furmanovsky has documented some of the biggest names to hit rock and roll, including Pink Floyd, Paul McCartney and The Who. Earlier this year, she won the prestigious ICON Award at the Abbey Road Music Photography Awards, with Noel Gallagher himself presenting the honor, calling Furmanovsky “one of my best friends.” On view will be a selection of photographs she took while traveling with the band from their early beginnings in Manchester to global domination in 2009.

Also on view will be bespoke collage artworks and t-shirts designed by Kosuke Kawamura. The Japanese figure has nestled unique imprint on the world of art over the past decade, utilizing old advertisements, posters and mass media that he rips and fragments to break free of traditional design and spark new dialogues surrounding familiar iconography. New Gallery will be selling collage works that recreate the cover photos of Oasis’ hit single “Champagne Supernova” and album Time Flies… 1994–2009, as well several limited edition tees.

Oasis Origin + Reconstruction will open on Thursday, October 31, with an opening reception taking place the evening prior. Please RSVP for more information.
