Thank you. 00:02:23: 00:02:32 --> I'm a little sorry for the vegetables I did earlier. 00:02:37: 00:02:52 --> Eh, what about that art today? I received that title 00:02:55: 00:02:55 --> because of the added value of Seto City. 00:02:58: 00:02:59 --> I thought it was quite meaty for me, and when 00:03:03: 00:03:03 --> I thought about how it would change if it fit 00:03:06: 00:03:06 --> my age, that was it. 00:03:08: 00:03:08 --> Well, the Mori Art Museum is called such a museum. 00:03:12: 2 00:03:12 --> Well, there are static mart facilities, and then they exist. 00:03:16: 00:03:16 --> After that, I think that it becomes a story that 00:03:20: 00:03:20 --> it is public art well, and, well, both of these 00:03:23: 00:03:23 --> are fairly high fixed. 00:03:25: 00:03:25 --> Well, I think it's become a presence that stays there, 00:03:29: 00:03:29 --> but actually. 00:03:30: 00:03:32 --> There are exhibitions that unfold in the museum, and well 00:03:37: 00:03:37 --> from the learning program, there are trainers, etc., but these 00:03:42: 00:03:42 --> things are also held in each Matsushima town in Japan, 00:03:47: 00:03:47 --> but this is a limited-time or variable, well-one-natured program, so 00:03:53: 00:03:53 --> it's not that hard, it's the content in it, I 00:03:57: 00:03:57 --> think that it can be taken like a program. 00:04:01: 00:04:02 --> Also, well, I think that this community program plays a 00:04:07: 00:04:07 --> very important role in the art economy, even in museums 00:04:12: 00:04:12 --> and in the international arts, and even in the time 00:04:17: 00:04:17 --> to protect it, there are activities that I go out 00:04:21: 00:04:21 --> of the museum and do, and then I focus on 00:04:25: 00:04:25 --> nearby art facilities. a I also do classes that take 00:04:29: 00:04:29 --> part in a town like roppongi night. 00:04:32: 00:04:34 --> Of course, this digital domain has also been added in 00:04:39: 00:04:39 --> this corona, and this is supposed to exist well regardless 00:04:45: 00:04:45 --> of the place, but well, how do we go out 00:04:49: 00:04:49 --> with this? 00:04:51: 00:04:51 --> Well, I think it's a challenge for the future. and 00:04:54: 3 00:04:54 --> sum up in that uh. 00:04:56: 00:04:57 --> Well, for example, when I hold that international art festival 00:05:02: 00:05:02 --> that returns things, I think one important point is how 00:05:07: 00:05:07 --> to rediscover this year with art. 00:05:10: 00:05:10 --> And in the past, when what was called the Venice 00:05:13: 00:05:14 --> Biennale, such as the Venice Biennale or the document, which 00:05:18: 00:05:18 --> is called this international art festival, was really only a 00:05:22: 00:05:22 --> few in the world, it was a platform to see 00:05:25: 00:05:25 --> the art of the world in itself. 00:05:27: 00:05:27 --> That's right but. 00:05:29: 00:05:29 --> It is said that the international art festival is born 00:05:33: 00:05:33 --> in each city in each country so much. 00:05:36: 00:05:37 --> It is not to collect the appearance of that absolute 00:05:42: 00:05:42 --> world there well, and to discover well of each town 00:05:47: 00:05:47 --> or each city. 00:05:49: 00:05:49 --> Specifically, it is a traditional culture, and it will be 00:05:53: 00:05:53 --> rediscovered from the viewpoint of the culture of the original 00:05:59: 00:05:59 --> festival, and, well, history, community, and natural science. 00:06:04: 00:06:04 --> Well, I'm going to make a new work based on 00:06:07: 00:06:08 --> this kind of research. 00:06:10: 00:06:10 --> I think that such a thing will be given a 00:06:13: 00:06:14 --> big meaning, but on the other hand? 00:06:17: 00:06:19 --> Hey. 00:06:20: 00:06:26 --> I waited a minute, waited a minute. 00:06:28: 4 00:06:29 --> There is another rediscovery of that similar year here, and 00:06:35: 00:06:35 --> this public art is equally yes. 00:06:39: 00:06:39 --> Well, it's not like bringing what's in that market as 00:06:44: 00:06:45 --> it is, but in each city yes, well, you can 00:06:49: 00:06:49 --> make a similar discovery by it. 00:06:53: 00:06:54 --> Well, that place. It is not only that it is 00:06:57: 00:06:57 --> so, and it is there in that space though it 00:07:00: 00:07:00 --> says, "Mersite special" of Koyumi. 00:07:03: 00:07:03 --> Well, in the sense of the work, I think that 00:07:06: 00:07:06 --> it is ideal to be able to create something that 00:07:10: 00:07:10 --> suits it well. 00:07:11: 00:07:13 --> Yes, please give me a little today. 00:07:16: 00:07:23 --> I'm sorry, but this didn't work. 00:07:27: 00:07:30 --> Can you get it out from Mr. Fukudome? 00:07:34: 00:07:42 --> No one kiriptera. 00:07:44: 00:07:45 --> Okay. 00:07:46: 00:07:50 --> Thank you.

  • Hitoshi Nomura Space-Time and Life: Signifying Conjecture and Manifestation
    ACG Press Release Hitoshi Nomura Space-Time and Life: Signifying Conjecture and Manifestation ◎ ACG Press Release – Exhibition Announcement – Hitoshi Nomura Space-Time and Life: Signifying Conjecture and Manifestation 野村仁の個展「時空と生命：表徴化予想と顕れ」 ARTCOURT Gallery is pleased to present a solo exhibition of Hitoshi Nomura, Space-Time and Life: Signifying Conjecture and Manifestation. Nomura’s first exhibition at our gallery in two years will be an opportunity to see ‘CMB’ score: 13.8 Billion years / Temperature Fluctuation, the newest addition to his series of musical score works, exhibited for the first time. To Nomura, who uses his camera to capture the phases of matter that change with gravity and time while also viewing photography as major sculptural work since early in his career, his score series is one of his significant ongoing works that began at a turning point when he first turned his lens towards the heavenly bodies. Another “score” work, ‘moon’ score (1975), in which he used film with five lines copied onto them to shoot pictures of the moon at random, making it appear like musical notes, begins to sound like music made naturally when actually performed. With this discovery, Nomura deepened his interest in the origin of things, or the structures of the “genesis” of everyday phenome- na, especially those that exist beyond people’s perception, thus expanding his work to Space-Time: Signifying Conjecture / Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking cover themes from the origin of the universe to the birth of life on Earth. 2016-2021 | 3DCG ‘CMB’ score: 13.8 Billion Years / Temperature Fluctuation, shown for the first time at this exhibition, tries to create musical scores out of electrdomagnetic wave readings coming from the areas of constellation coordinates selected from an all-space temperature map released in 2018, which is based on the cosmic microwave background (CMB) observed by the ESA’s probing satellite PLANCK.

  • FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Yukinori Yanagi Blum & Poe, Los Angeles
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Yukinori Yanagi Blum & Poe, Los Angeles July 17–August 14, 2021 June 5, 2021, Los Angeles—Blum & Poe is pleased to present the first major U.S. survey of work by Onomichi, Japan-based artist Yukinori Yanagi. This is Yanagi’s fourth presentation with the gallery, following his solo show at Blum & Poe Tokyo in 2019 and his participation in the group exhibitions Parergon: Japanese Art of the 1980s and 1990s (Los Angeles, 2019) and Mountains Carrying Suns (Tokyo, 2021). Having resided in the U.S. in the late 1980s and 1990s, obtaining his MFA in sculpture from Yale University School of Art in 1990, Yanagi was first recognized on the world stage at the 45th Venice Biennale in 1993 with World Flag Ant Farm (1990). As a monumental process-based installation, this work featured 180 national flags—recognized by the United Nations, including colonized countries—each made out of acrylic panels of painted sand and connected by plastic tubes through which ants burrowed and effectively broke down both physical and geo-political borders. First presented at LACE (Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions) in 1991, World Flag Ant Farm 2020 will be featured in the current exhibition in an updated version, comprising approximately 200 national flags that reflect radical shifts in world politics over the last thirty years. As his former professor Vito Acconci once stated in 1990, Yanagi "attempts to join natural processes with cultural mechanisms . that then go on to have a life and duration all their own." Yanagi’s machine-perfect sculptures and installations probe the contested boundaries or limits of politically and ideologically constructed territories and national myths.

  • Island-Museums on the Inland Sea
    JAPAN Island-museums on the Inland Sea BY ISABELLE RODRIGUEZ The Seto Inland Sea stretches between three of the four largest islands that make up Japan, bordered by the coasts of Honshū, Shikoku and Kyūshūau, islands that are home to gigantic port cities like Kobe or Hiroshima. Between them, over a thousand small islands litter nearly 23 000 km2 of water. The region offers an impressive image of the contrasts in contemporary Japan, a country where rural tradition meets a penchant for over-industrialization and concrete, where ances-tral temples stand alongside cutting-edge technological infrastructure. The Inland Sea, though praised for its gentle climate protected from heavy rains, is having a hard time erasing its in-dustrial past and decades of pollution-related scandals propagated at numerous (now closed) copper mines and plants, leaving behind ravaged landscapes, abandoned cities and countless ruins. Today, however, three small islets at the heart of the archipelago welcome hundreds of thou-sands of visitors a year who journey by train and several hours by boat from Tokyo to enjoy a place where art is part of a sublime nature. In Naoshima, Teshima and Inujima stand concrete open-air museums, exhibitions spaces and gardens providing an atmosphere of rare strength and finesse, between construction and rehabilitation. The founder of this unusual ensemble, Soichiro Fukutake, was born not far from there to a father whose love of art was passed on not only through an inherited collection but also through some land located on the southern part of Teshima. He decided to dedicate this space to visual art, daring to fight the area’s desertification and revitalize the region’s image by launching a vast museum project, with Tadao Ando as one of the main architects, far from the “monstrous metropolises”.

  • NH Works for Kanazawa PR
    Noriyuki Haraguchi Yukinori Yanagi USSR Works for Kanazawa May 17th to June 28th, 2014 15 March to 10 May, 2014 原 口 典 之 柳 幸典 USSR ワークス・フォー・カナザワ 2014 年 5 月 17 日（土）～ 6 月 28 日（土） 2014年3月15日（土）～5月10日（土） The environment that surrounds us is a collection of places. Because of their abstract nature, “places” require something to support or define them. “Borders” serve this purpose. [ … ] When something foreign from one place engages in intercourse with a neighboring place, both areas vibrate in relation to one another. Crossing borders expends energy and, at the same time, through the crossing of borders, energy is generated. Yukinori Yanagi Miyake Fine Art is pleased to announce an exhibition by Yukinori Yanagi’s “USSR”. USSR is constructed with the national flags of Soviet Socialist Republics, which used to form The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. It was created 5 years after the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991. USSR is one of Yanagi’s representative series called “World Flag Ant Farm” ruminating the theme of Cold War. In the series, ants were released into the coloured sands designed as flags in boxes connected with plastic tubes and they dug out the sands collapsing the whole image. By rediscovering his “Flag Series” amid the rapidly changing world affairs today, we will reexamine the social and prescient nature of his works. We will also exhibit Three China created in 1997 from the same series. Yukinori Yanagi was born in Fukuoka in 1959, studied and obtained M.F.A.

  • Japanese Art of the 1980S and 1990S Curated by Mika Yoshitake
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Parergon: Japanese Art of the 1980s and 1990s Curated by Mika Yoshitake Blum & Poe Los Angeles Part 1: February 14-March 23, 2019 Public opening: Thursday, February 14, 6-8pm Part 2: April 6-May 19, 2019 Public opening: Saturday, April 6, 6-8pm Blum & Poe is pleased to announce Parergon, a selected survey exhibition of Japanese art of the 1980s and ‘90s, curated by Mika Yoshitake. Focusing on the themes of abject politics, transcending media, performativity, and satire and simulation, this show will present the work of over twenty-five visual artists including Kodai Nakahara, Tatsuo Miyajima, Kazumi Nakamura, Yukie Ishikawa, Tsuyoshi Ozawa, and Yukinori Yanagi in an array of media spanning painting, sculpture, duration performance, noise, video, and photography. The exhibition title makes reference to the gallery in Tokyo (Gallery Parergon, 1981-1986) that introduced many artists associated with the New Wave phenomenon, its name attributed to Jacques Derrida’s essay from 1979 which questioned the “framework” of art, influential to artists and critics during the period. Parergon brings together some of the most enigmatic works that were first generated during a rich two-decade period that are pivotal to the way we perceive and understand contemporary Japanese art today. In the aftermath of the conceptual reconsideration of the object and relationality spearheaded by Mono-ha in the 1970s, this era opened up new critical engagements with language and medium where artists explored expansions in installation, performance, and experimental multi-genre practices. When the U.S. and Europe were witnessing a return to Expressionism alongside a postmodern aesthetic of simulacra and deconstruction characterized by the Pictures generation, this zeitgeist of cultural capitalism was instead manifest under Japan’s unique social and geo-political conditions resulting from the rise and burst of the bubble economy.

  • Insects in Works of Contemporary East Asian Artists
    Magdalena Furmanik-Kowalska Polish Institute of World Art Studies https://doi.org/10.15804/aoto202007 DISGUST OR FASCINATION? INSECTS IN WORKS OF CONTEMPORARY EAST ASIAN ARTISTS he most prolific creatures on Earth. Over the ages, insects have aroused both disgust and fascination in human. Their ambiguous reception Tis a reason why they were and still are a subject or an inspiration for artworks. Painters, sculptures, weavers and others have depicted them: useful silkworms, beautiful butterflies, mysterious fireflies, ants, as well as intrusive flies, danger spiders,1) and the predatory praying mantis. The aim of this article is to present different approaches to the insect theme taken by contemporary Chinese, Korean, and Japanese artists. How do they see bugs? As little friends or intruders? Are they the main subject of their work or just a tool to achieve a relevant artistic expression? Have their representations been inspired by the traditional arts? DISGUST, FEAR AND FASCINATION In 2013 a book was published entitled ‘The Infested Mind: Why Humans Fear, Loathe, and Love Insects’2) written by Jeffrey Lockwood – an entomologist 1) However, spiders are not insects but arachnids, I allow myself to include them in my article because of cultural context. They cause the same human reaction like insects. They are called “bugs” as well. 2) Lockwood (2013). 156 Magdalena Furmanik-Kowalska as well as a graduate of philosophy and a M.F.A. programme. He described – based on his own experiences and, for example, artwork by Salvador Dali – how insects can influence human life. How do they ‘push our disgust button’? Why are we scared of them? The book presents many cases, but still it asks more questions than it answers.

  • New Museum Views Fall 1993
    The New Museum OF CONTEMPORARY ART TheNewMu Wha t's Ins ide .. Trade Routes Thornton Dial Testimonio Limited Edition by Lorna Simpson TRADE ROUTES Main Gallery September 10, 1993- November 7, 1993 Trade Routes, an exhibition of contemporary art, brings together international artists whose work is engaged with global trade relations. Artworks, installations, and arrangements of artists' multiples are presented along with computer-based architectural design projects translating electronic flows of financial information into visual form. The rise of computer networks and new tele- communications technologies have led to a global trade environment, paralleling the spread of historical trade routes. Such shifts in trading patterns and technology provoke transformations in culture, affecting the experience of daily life. Trade Routes seeks to show in visceral terms the implications of the globalization of trade. From Jamelie Hassan's Even Onto China-"odd and curious" Persian currency available for viewers to take- to Soo- Ja Kim 's methodically hand sewn and wrapped bundles of Korean cloth , the exhibition addresses historical aspects of trade relations and suggests how markets mobilize not just goods but also populations. The exhibition explores the contributions and complexities of the world of finance. The work of Japanese artist Yukinori Yanagi, exhibited in Japan, Europe, and, most recently in the Venice Bienniale, combines controversial symbols of national and cultural identity with recognizable signs of currency. For Trade Routes, he has constructed a cargo container in the traditional keyhole shape of the Japanese Emperor's tomb. Visitors are enticed into the container where mirrored walls reflect red lights in a shrine-like atmosphere.

  • FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Yukinori Yanagi Blum & Poe
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Yukinori Yanagi Blum & Poe, Tokyo November 2-December 21, 2019 Opening reception: Saturday, November 2, 6-8pm Following the announcement of the artist’s worldwide representation, Blum & Poe is pleased to present the gallery’s first solo exhibition with Yukinori Yanagi. This presentation succeeds the two-part historical survey exhibition curated by Mika Yoshitake at Blum & Poe Los Angeles, Parergon: Japanese Art of the 1980s and 1990s, which featured a selection of Yanagi’s formative works from the era including the monumental Ground Transposition (1987) which interrogates narratives of colonial occupation and wartime incarceration, and Pacific K100B (1997) which confronts national histories of naval war and violence. Yanagi is well known for his work dealing with systems of institutional and state control, national borders, colonization, diaspora, and refugee crises, often focusing on politically charged representations of nationalism and “symbolic signs of stasis.” This presentation on view in Tokyo is connected to a body of work produced in the late 1990s and early 2000s that marked a shift in the artist’s practice, in which he employed the Pacific Ocean as a research site for excavating hidden histories of war. The exhibition centerpiece, Akitsushima 50·I / II (2019), is a cast-iron replica of the World War II Imperial Japanese Navy seaplane tender Akitsushima, which the U.S. Navy bombed and sank in September 1944 and currently rests at the bottom of the Coron Bay of Busuanga Island in the Philippines. The numerical values of its title refer to the scale of the replica to the original at 1:50, and indicate a second iteration of the sculpture—the first was completed in 2000 and now resides in the permanent collection of the Hiroshima City Museum of Contemporary Art.
