Yusuke Toda's 'The Many Lives of Yum' Opening Reception

Join Morton Contemporary Gallery for the opening reception of 'The Many Lives of Yum' by Japanese pop artist Yusuke Toda on Saturday, December 12th from 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM.

This exhibtion will mark Yusuke's FOURTH exhibition with Morton Contemporary. The 34-year-old artist, mentored by Japanese greats Takashi Murakami and Tomokazu Matsuyama, made his U.S. debut at Morton Contemporary Gallery in December of 2022 and we are thrilled to be showcasing his amazing body of work yet again in Philadelphia.

Travel with Yusuke's iconic character ‘YUM’. In one painting, YUM rides Napoleon’s horse; in another, an old Harley-Davidson or a Fiat 500. Elsewhere, YUM sits in Eileen Gray’s iconic Dragon Chair or on a Marshmallow Sofa. Historical paintings, legendary automobiles, and celebrated furniture: surrounded by the extraordinary objects of the adult world, for YUM this is an entirely ordinary day.
