On view in Tokyo: Urs Fischer: Machigai Sagashi - Spot the Difference
Fergus McCaffrey Tokyo
Apr 11 - Jul 4, 2026
Closed on Sun, Mon, Holidays
Known for installations that unsettle everyday perception through shifts of scale, spatial disorientation, and material transformation, in playful and almost surreal way, Urs Fischer has been the subject of major solo exhibitions and public projects worldwide, including presentations at the Venice Biennale, the Pinault Collection, LACMA, and Museo Jumex, as well as monumental public commissions at Hamad International Airport and Place Vendôme, just to name a few. This show marks his first solo exhibition in Japan.
Fischer employs humor and the improbable to encourage serious philosophical discussions about painting and sculpture, wrapped in disarming clothing. The artist’s first exhibition at Fergus McCaffrey Tokyo is titled after the game Spot the Difference and in it timeless existential themes are cast in wax to be melted, while playful ideas are poured in bronze and made permanent.
