Several Video Views of Exhibitions - December 2012

I'm trying something a bit different this time - introducing several art exhibitions via video clips:

Inoue Baku (井上麦) Exhibition/Installation - Gallery Kobo (巷房) December 2012 (121217)
http://youtu.be/X0RX9jpyhJM

An interesting exhibition/installation consisting of stone artwork and the shadows the pieces cast (from a single spotlight placed on the floor near the door).  This exhibition was in all three of Gallery Kobo's exhibition rooms, but I only the saw the two in the basement (which is what this video shows).

Onodera Sumino Exhibition at GOBP-306 小野寺純乃 (銀座奥野ビル306号室) 121215
http://youtu.be/mZWYS6InA1Y

This installation had an interesting element - the artist used an old out-of-ink pen to write invisible things onto the white strips of paper.  After she explained that, I contemplated what I would do if I were writing something that no one would ever read, and I said something to the effect of (I remember the concept of what I said very well, but not the exact wording), "If I did that, I would write the kind of things that I'd like to say to people, but cannot for whatever reason (desire for world peace, etc.).  What did you write?", and she confirmed that she had indeed written the type of things that feel good to write, but not to have someone read!


A couple of views of the opening party for a group exhibition at Gallery Ginza-One:

Gallery Ginza-One December 2012 Exhibition (B) 銀座ワン展示会 2012年12月 (121217)
http://youtu.be/ELuhLTUHkeg


The following views are from two different dates - November 29th and December 4th, and the artwork on the walls is a little differet (from the same artist) in the second and third videos (12/04) than the first (11/29).

"Kiki - Live in Hamamatsucho - 2012"

On December 6th, 2012, I was on my way to Hamamatsucho Station when I heard a beautiful voice on the December wind... which turned out to be the group Kiki, who were performing outdoors, near the station.
I listened to both of their performances (each consisting of several songs) that evening and found them to be a nice, tight band, with a singer who has a beautiful voice.  The band's website is:
http://kiki-web.com

And their YouTube page is:
https://www.youtube.com/user/kikidouga/videos?view=0&flow=grid

Two songs, one from each of their two sets are as follows:

Kiki - Hamamatsucho Live
Set-1, Song-4, 砂時計 (Sunadokei/Hourglass) 121206
http://youtu.be/w2fQrrM0_EU

Kiki - Hamamatsucho Live
Set-2, Song-4, Tonight (121206)
http://youtu.be/YLnN7x98TGg

Kiki* 's music can be heard via SoundCloud and myspace:

Majima Hidenori (間島秀徳) Exhibition at Steps Gallery - (2012/11)

This exhibition (2012/10) by Majima Hidenori (間島秀徳) at Steps Gallery consisted of the very large painting shown in this photo.  As I contemplated the picture, I commented to the gallery owner that I had at first thought it was an abstract image, but the more I looked at it, the more it looked like the ocean...  He said it was indeed the ocean, but as seen from underwater.  With that realization and contemplating the painting anew, there was a terror/fear in the image with echoes of March 11th, 2011....

This exhibition (2012/10/22-27) by Kugimachi Kazue (釘町一恵) at Nabis Gallery (なびす画廊) consisted of pictures similar to the one featured on the promotional card, which I thought had an otherworldly appearance... as though the light were some kind of link to another universe and/or time.  この展示会は、DM絵葉書のような不思議な感じの絵でした。

Tonuma Makiko (戸沼牧子) Exhibition at K's Gallery - (2012/10)

This exhibition (2012/10/22-27) by Tonuma Makiko (戸沼牧子) at K's Gallery consisted of pictures making inspired use of colors.  The colors were quite nice, and while the picture featured on the promotional card gives you some idea, keep in mind that printing can't quite reproduce really subtle colors, and - indeed - the original (naturally) looked better with really beautiful color.

この展示会は、DM絵葉書のような美しい色の絵でした。 DMの例は、いいが、オリジナルの方は(勿論!)もっと綺麗でした。 色使いは、素晴らしいと思いました。

This exhibition (2012/09/17-09/22)) by Takahashi Mariko (高橋まり子) at Jungaro (純画廊) consisted of nihonga paintings similar to the one featured on the promotional card.  I really like this artist's pictures - they give you the same settled feeling you get when going to some place of natural beauty - a wordless feeling of contentment.  この展示会は、DM絵葉書のような日本画でした。 どういう表現がいいのか、良く分かりませんが、なんだか大自然の場所に行っているの感じ?  [2010 Exhibition (2010年の展示)], [2011 Exhibition (2011年の展示)]

This installation (2012/09/03-27) by Isono Michiko (磯野迪子) at Lixil Gallery consisted of views of large apartment buildings.  Looking at the projected views on the walls of the gallery, I contemplated the fascination of looking at large concrete buildings full of residences.  It's kind of like looking at a living library shelf, with recorded worlds residing inside books on the one hand, and living worlds residing within each of the many apartments in each building on the other.  このインストレーションは、DM絵葉書のような写真でした。 まず、動画と思いましたが、良く見ると、写真から写真へのトランジションの感じでした。 東京のアパートやマンションは、面白い; 外から見ると、色々な世界がある見たいな感じ?

Harai Kenji (原井憲二展) Exhibition at Gallery Kobo (巷房) - (2012/09)

This exhibition (2012/09/03-08) by Harai Kenji (原井憲二) at Gallery Kobo (巷房) needed to be seen from a certain distance.  I initially walked into the room and looked very closely at the paper in frames... "Hmm... paper with holes of various sizes creating shading..." and then later, from the other side of the room saw that it was one large photograph, with basically halftone-printing style dots (holes in this case) of varying sizes making up a picture - as you can see from the promotional card.

この展示会は、まず抽象的な紙と思って、それから作品を離れて見ると「あっ! 写真だ!」見えて来た。 黒い所は、穴でした!

Mikami Satoshi (三上智展) Exhibition at Gallery Hinoki (ギャラリー檜) - (2012/08)

This exhibition (2012/08/27-09/01) by Mikami Satoshi (三上智展) at Gallery Hinoki (ギャラリー檜) presumably consisted of pictures in the style of the promotional card picture - but I missed the exhibition, so this image is all I've seen.  I like this picture a lot though, so I'm posting it.
