Masakatsu Sashie is preparing to show back at his home country of JapanĀ at Mizuma Galley after a recent show in LA. Opening this Saturday, November 26th, the show will run until the day after Christmas. We expect his signature urban orbs floating over ominous landscapes, but as the title of the show also hints at, Sashie is not merely content with having his art meet some arbitrary “De Facto Standard.” He seeks to push his talents to another level.

This latest body of work also showcases some newer subjects and design as we have received info that only two paintings in this coming show will contain his classic spherical subjects. Which leaves us to wonder what comes next…? Check out a little preview after the jump.
