Tamura Masaki (田村正樹展) Exhibition at Art Space Rashinban (アートスペース羅針盤) - (2012/07)

This exhibition (2012/07/23-28) by Tamura Masaki (田村正樹) at Art Space Rashinban (アートスペース羅針盤) consisted of mainly large paintings in the style of the one shown here (which was one of the smaller pictures), as well as some unique wooden objects with a small picture painted onto one flat surface.

The paintings included nihonga elements, although they were of unique construction, with some parts painted directly onto the wood panel, and other parts with one, two, or three layers of washi paper.  Painted white parts utilized crushed oyster shells.  I thought the overall balance and taste of the pictures was quite good.  この展示会は、上の絵のような絵でした。 日本画のエレメントを使って、結構上品な感じとバランスのいい絵と思いました。

Fujii Hidemasa (藤井秀全) Exhibition at Lixil Gallery - (2012/07)

This installation (2012/07/02-26) by Fujii Hidemasa (藤井秀全) at Lixil Gallery in Kyobashi was a lot of fun to experience!  Fortunately photographs were allowed for this event and I took a number (see below), as well as a few videos.  To understand the fun of the exhibition, see the video clips after having a look at the photos below.  (Video/動画: [A], [B], [C])
If you can read Japanese, also have a look at the gallery page for this exhibition, which includes an interesting interview with the artist.  この展示会/インストレーションは、凄く楽しかったです! 見るだけは、まず面白いが、「凄く面白い」を感じる為に「光」+「動き」+「影」を熱心するのは必要。 現場で撮った三つの動画を見ると、少し現場の雰囲気を感じるかも知りません。 (動画: [A], [B], [C].)  そして、画廊のページで、アーチストのインタビューがあります。
