He had a solo exhibition of his artwork at Leo Castelli Gallery in 1989. His largest retrospective exhibition “The Air is on Fire” at Fondation Cartier pour l'art contemporain, Paris in 2007 achieved great success. In Japan, he held a solo exhibition at the Toko Museum of Contemporary Art in 1991, and recently, at Laforet Museum Harajuku in 2012. Lynch is exhibiting work at a special exhibition at 21_21 DESIGN SIGHT, “Image-Makers”, from July until October this year. This will be his second solo exhibition since 2012, and he will present a series of photographs “NUDE ATELIER IDEM 2012” as well as recent works including lithographs produced after 2012.
