This was followed by his participation in the 10th Biennale de Paris, and his first solo exhibition overseas was in 1978 at the Galerie Alfred Schmela in Dusseldorf. He gained an international reputation through large scale exhibitions such as “NORIYUKI HARAGUCHI,”his solo exhibition at the Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus in 2001. and “Das Schwarze Quadrat, Hommage en Malewitsch,” an hommage to Malevich in 2007. His recent activities include a first ever large-scale retrospective, “Noriyuki Haraguchi: Society and Matter,” which included the presentation of his new work at the BankART1929’s Studio NYK in Yokohama in 2009, evidence of his major influence and presence in the domestic art domain. 2012, he was invited to MOMA’s “Tokyo 1995-1970: A New Avant-garde” exhibition.
