The Chance is Higher at Gallery White Room Tokyo

THE CHANCE IS HIGHER published by Dashwood Books is a 72-page book featuring 40 black-and-white images by legendary Dutch photographer Ari Marcopoulos, all of which were printed on a Xerox machine. For years Marcopoulos has worked with Xeroxes as sketches for books, zines, and exhibitions. In love with the simple direct beauty of this low-fi technique, the artist turned to that medium to create this new body of work. Of a recent group show at Cohan & Leslie, the art critic Vince Aletti wrote in the New Yorker,”[Marcopoulos’s] huge black-and-white Xerox of a bruised elbow is a minimal high point.”
Ari Marcopoulos will show works from his latest book the Chance is Higher at the White Room Gallery Tokyo in Omotesando, from 14th June to 25th August.
Opening on Friday 13rd June 19:00 - 21:30
