A
SHRIEK FROM AN INVISIBLE BOX REVISITED II
is the second of a three-part show at Medialia. Originally
a gathering of work by 100 international artists, A SHRIEK
FROM AN INVISIBLE BOX exhibited at the Meguro Museum,
Tokyo, Japan, in 2001. The exhibition was curated by the independent
curator, Mashiko Nakashima. In the effort to bring this exhibition
to the United States, the orginal show has been divided into
installments, because of spacial limitations.
The specifications for the work were originally, and are now:
• Each artist will have a single horizontal or vertical space
(no suspensions from the ceiling) 8"(H) x 14" x 14"
• Within this space each artist will place a minimum of 3
three-dimensional works
• Each of the works can be either independent or related to
the other works
• Each work cannot be larger than 8"(H) x 7" x 7"
The
intention of this exhibition is to present how an artist interprets
a limited space with a minimum of three works, and with a
given size for each work. The reason for a minimum of three
pieces is to further enhance the power of the artists visual
statement. The interrelationship of the three works is left
to the artist. This exhibition is a unique three-dimensional
exhibition, not a small maquette display. However, having
a theme title for the exhibition unifies to an extent the
overall expression of the exhibit. |
The
following is taken from the text of the original exhibition
catalogue, A SHRIEK FROM AN INVISIBLE BOX, 2001, Meguro Museum
of Art, which was written by Mashiko Nakashima. I am most
grateful to Mr. Shigeki Fukunaga for having given me the opportunity
to curate an exhibition at the Meguro Museum of Art, Tokyo.
The most profoundly sad occurrence was Mr. Fukunaga suddenly
passing away on August 5, while he was attending the special
exhibition, Contemporary Japanese Prints, at the Guanajuato
State Museum in Guanajuato, Mexico...
Mr.
Fukunaga had written in the 2001 Shriek exhibition invitation
to the participating artists:
...
This exhibition is curated by our guest curator, Mashiko
Nakashima. The exhibition was realized because of her
precise and continuous world-wide search for artists
for the last several years. I, as the director of the
Meguro Museum of Art, Tokyo, am truly looking forward
to seeing your actual work and concept for this particular
exhibition.
Because
of the limited size and space available to each artist,
the Meguro Museum is able to exhibit nearly 100 works.
The small scale work here is not a maquette for large
scale art, but, it is a finished entity. Because of
the limited scale, proficient technical skill will be
evident in the exhibition ... |
