Mai Yamashita + Naoto Kobayashi : "The Four Souvenirs and The Book" TSCA

NEW EXHIBITION

 

Mai Yamashita / Born in 1976 in Chiba, Japan, PhD Tokyo University of The Arts

Naoto Kobayashi / Born in 1974 in Chiba, Japan, M.A. Tokyo University of The Arts

Yamashita and Kobayashi met at high school and started working together in 2000. Since moving to Germany in 2004, they have been working and living in Berlin and have traveled the world working on their projects. They have had solo exhibitions at Kunstverein Gottingen (Germany, 2011) and Kunsthalle Lingen (Germany, 2007) among others. Group shows include ARS06 at The Museum of Contemporary Art KIASMA (Helsinki, 2006); Re-imagining Asia at Haus der Kulturen der Welt (Berlin, 2008); Things That Only An Artist Can Do at MARCO- Museo de Arte Contemporanea (Vigo, Spain, 2010); Aichi Triennale 2010; and Yokohama Triennale 2011.

 

Meandering thoughts and memories form a sort of consciousness that, through the artists’ simple actions, refreshes our own thoughts as real potential. “Major League Birdwatching” is a new piece based on stereotypical images of America and the contrasting reality found through their daily life experiences.

Satoru Tamura : "A" Machine TSCA

NEW EXHIBITION

 

TSCA is pleased to announce our current ongoing exhibition by Satoru Tamura, “A” Machine.

 

Satoru Tamura, born in 1972 and presently residing in Ibaraki, began exhibiting his works in 1995. His consistent approach to art seems to suggest that he aspired to become an artist from the young age of 23 as part of his mission to reject the meaning and significance attached to worldly things. Early representative works include “Standing bears go back”, in which propeller-powered bears move backwards, and films “Eventually the washing machine will combust” and “Plastic models break into pieces”. In recent years, new exhibits showing his Weight Sculptures series and Point of Contact serieshave been garnering attention both within Japan and abroad.
