Graduated with a BFA in painting from Tokyo National University of Fine Arts and Music in 2003 and was awarded the University's Purchase Prize (Graduation Exhibition). In the same year she received the university's Ohashi Memorial Prize and was selected for a Holbein Scholarship. She has also recently received a scholarship in the Agency for Cultural Affairs’ Program of Overseas Study for Upcoming Artists and is planning to reside in Vienna.

In 2008 she won the Namura Priza and in 2010 The Gotoh Memorial Prize Foundation Newcomer’s prize of art. Major solo exhibitions include "It is as it is" at ShugoArts 2009 and "Half in Gray" at void (2009). Taguchi gained significant attention from the group exhibitions "Chaosmos '05 -Unreal Reality" shown at the Sakura City Museum of Art (2005), "Trace Elements" at Tokyo Opera City Art Gallery (2008) and The Performance Space in Sydney (2008), "Somewhere between me and this world Japanese contemporary photography" at the Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography (2012) and "Sleeping Beauty" at Hiroshima City Museum of Contemporary Art (2014).

Kazuna Taguchi has attracted international attention for her ability to blur the border between photography and painting. Her work involves creating a monochrome acrylic painting that is then photographed to produce a finished image in what has been described as "an alchemy-like manner that manipulates painting and photography" (Kyoji Maeda, February 17, 2006, evening edition, Yomiuri Shimbun). The result ensures a peculiar other worldliness that is central to the attraction of Taguchi's work.

Red Gate Gallery is pleased to announce the opening of the new exhibition Take Away - International artists in the Collection of Brian Wallace.

The 40 works include paintings, prints, sculptures, installations, mixed media and photography by 28 artists from Sweden, Japan, Australia, the United States, South Korea, Mongolia, Denmark, the United Kingdom, Israel, Russia, Canada, France, Germany and New Zealand.

Many works were collected while Red Gate was participating in art fairs in such places as NY, HK, Miami, Tokyo and Seoul while others were collected from artists with a deep connection to China. Many of the artists in Take Away have made a great contribution to cultural exchange through their participation in residency programs in China, exhibitions in China and by curating many shows with their Chinese counterparts around the world.

This exhibition runs to March 2024.
