【昭和町芸術祭】
台北温州街で開催されている「第一回 昭和町藝術祭 Showacho Art Festival 」。
日本のアーティスト、橋本仁さんの個展と共にSAN(橋本仁、福田基、柳沢ゆかり) /周武翰/五味稚子 と日台のアーティストによる昭和町と大院子をテーマにそれぞれが表現した作品、とても見ごたえあります。会場はかつての「昭和町」で、台北帝大の独身宿舎であり、戦後は台北市日本人学校の初めての校舎としても使われた「大院子」、この施設はオーナーが橋本仁さんの作品のコレクターでもあるというご縁で始まったそう。
元々、物質と時間と空間に深い関心をもって作品を作ってきた橋本さんは、おばあ様が「湾生」(萬華にあった、台湾一美しい建築といわれたホテルが実家)だった関係もあり、先祖の家族写真などを作品に取り入れ、自分のイマココと「時間と空間」の関係性にさらに複雑なレイヤーを加えました。
地層のように重なる歴史を掘り起こして目の前に見えないものを見る、というわたし自身の創作スタンスも重ね合わせてしまい、とても共感しました。
また、実際に気の遠くなるような時間を宿した日本の「工藝」の物質的な価値も感じられて、それが台湾の日本統治時代の歴史的建築物のなかで入れ子構造として見られるというのが、とても贅沢な展覧会だと思います。
こうした日本人アーティストによる、複雑なレイヤーを意識したインスタレーションは、今年の台湾電力による基隆の「黄金藝術祭」でも取り組まれ、それも興味深いものでした。今回は特に、歴史的な脈絡を持つ日本のアーティストが自発的に「芸術祭」を始めたところに、新しさとワクワクがあります。
「宗主国と被植民地」という関係は、本当に長期に渡って目に見えない深い生傷を残すことを日々感じていますが、アートは、こうしたものの間に不思議なアクションをもたらす未知数の触媒だということがよくわかります。なぜなら優れたアーティストとは、自分と世界の関係を客観的に考える訓練を積んでいるので、「日本よがり」にならない思考や見せ方をきちんと考えてることも大きいと思います。
来年からは、昭和町の他の場所も巻き込んでもっと大きな芸術祭にしたいとのこと、これからの展開がとても楽しみです。

"光來了" 2點· 【昭和町藝術節】 「第一屆昭和町藝術節」正在台北溫州街舉行。 與日本藝術家橋本仁的個展一起,SAN(橋本仁、福田肇、柳澤由香里)/周武半/五味智子以及日本和台灣藝術家的作品,各自表達了昭和町和Oinko的主題,非常引人注目。場地前身為“昭和町”,曾是台北帝國大學的單體宿舍,戰後也被用作台北市立日本人學校第一校舍。家而開始的。 橋本先生最初創作對物質、時間、空間有著濃厚興趣的作品,也與他的祖母住在萬盛(萬華的一家旅館,據說有台灣最美的建築)有關。在他的作品中,他為自己的想像狀態與「時間與空間」之間的關係增添了更複雜的層次。 它引起了我的共鳴,就像它與我自己的創作立場產生了共鳴,那就是挖掘歷史的層層,看到肉眼看不見的東西。 另外,可以感受到日本工藝品的物質價值,它們經歷了一個真正令人畏懼的時代,並且可以在台灣日治時期的歷史建築中看到,我認為這是一個非常豪華的展覽。 這些注重複雜層次的日本藝術家的裝置作品,也在今年的基隆台北電力黃金藝術節上展出,也很有趣。這次,一位有歷史淵源的日本藝術家自發性地發起了“藝術節”,這讓人感到新鮮和興奮。 我每天都感覺到「宗主國與被殖民者」之間的關係在很長一段時間內留下了深深的、看不見的傷痕,但藝術是一種未知的催化劑,它在這些事物之間帶來了神秘的行動。這是因為偉大的藝術家受過訓練,能夠客觀地思考自己與世界之間的關係,所以我認為,他們仔細思考如何思考和展示自己的作品,而不會讓自己看起來像“日本人”,這一點很重要。 從明年開始,他們希望讓"昭和鎮"的其他地方也參與進來,把它打造成一個更大的藝術節,所以我真的很期待看到這裡的進展如何。



對 "母校"或外國學人的了解有限

學人的過世,對畢業於劍橋大學的邱博舜  (Bor-Shuenn Chiou architecture tnua)和熟知建築史的羅時瑋,當然可寫些。然而我是讀紐約時報訃聞的一段才恍然大悟一件事:

The same year, he moved to the newly founded University of Essex, where he created England’s first graduate-level program in architectural theory and history, subjects that had previously been wrapped into art history. 紐約時報訃聞

Joseph Rykwert, 98, Dies; Historian of Architecture Challenged Modernism.insisting that healthy communities grew out of deeply felt traditions and values

我對ESSEX這碩士學程,根本不知道。不過,這知識解開我就名建築師 Daniel Libeskind 畢業於 ESSEX的迷。


Joseph Rykwert married his second wife, Anne, during his time in Essex, and she was a collaborator on notable works including the international Alberti exhibition and a book on the Adam brothers. Rykwert’s teaching has influenced several generations of architects and historians. Sir James Stirling commented on The First Moderns, for example, that it was: ‘An erudite lead into my favourite period (early nineteenth century) with amazing revelations on the architectural heroes of the time.’ Many of Rykwert’s former pupils have gone on to have significant careers in their own right, such as Daniel Libeskind, Shams Naga, Eric Parry, Alberto Pérez-GómezMohsen MostafaviRobert TavernorVaughan HartJohn Macarthur, and David Leatherbarrow. Many university departments of architecture in the United Kingdom or America employ members of staff who were taught by Rykwert.


Joseph Rykwert, 98, Dies; Historian of Architecture Challenged Modernism

A “gloriously erudite” critic, he denounced the embrace of blandly functional architecture in efforts to rebuild after World War II.

insisting that healthy communities grew out of deeply felt traditions and values

Much of his scholarship revolved around the way the past, especially Greco-Roman architecture, filtered down into later eras, and he praised architects who he felt tapped into that heritage — among them, Frank Lloyd Wright, Alvar Aalto and Louis Kahn — even if they identified as Modernists.


Dr. Rykwert was as much a literary critic and sociologist as he was a historian, and he often drew on literary ideas to make his points. All architecture is metaphor, he liked to say: The Greeks, for example, saw columns as analogous to the human body, a concept he examined in one of his best-known books, “The Dancing Column” (1996).


The same year, he moved to the newly founded University of Essex, where he created England’s first graduate-level program in architectural theory and history, subjects that had previously been wrapped into art history.
