Anyway, it was an exhibition of a strong impact.
The name of the Kudo Akirami, I did not know at all. However, last year, from the day when I had it in my hand a brochure of this exhibition, I was looking forward very much to this day.
The expectation, at all, was never to be betrayed.
Works using a shape that is deformed male genitalia, imported philosophy. Throughout the life of Kudo, such as the male genitalia this, such as the form of insect pupae were used consistently.
Because of its shape, what explanation also does not need, anywhere in the world, give an overwhelming impression on what you see. Yayoi Kusama was also extensive use of this form is very young. Even if I put in Hinduism in India, and is expressed as a ringer. For human beings, it would be the most powerful image.
On a visit to Japan, Michel Tapie who had led the movement Anforumeru was high praise at the sight of young Kudo work. Then won the top prize at a Art Award, Kudo got the right to study in Paris for half a year in 1962 as the prize.
In Paris he visited with his wife Hiroko, was carried out "happening" sensational, Kudo, walked away with a big topic. Even there, that image had been used effectively. Since then, it will be active in Europe for a long time.
Work is also the name of this exhibition, that your portrait, to provoke what you see. Everyone will repel "This! Not me" and.
His work has stacked the box of four, in it, eyes and lips, and huge ears on. It's really grotesque.
Not limited to this work, work of Kudo, is full of view of life both. Not the artificial, and linear, you can feel is a feeling of cleanliness, something, mushy, have been Numenume, and fresh.
Era, which has been active in Europe, and also created works on environmental pollution and radioactivity, Kudo, had a deep interest in the idea of ecology.
As might be expected, to around the topic by making happenings and sensational work, Kudo, was not the avant-garde artist simple. English nor French is doing, and accurately predict the trend of the times, he was blessed with high intelligence.
The work since 1980, works using a colorful thin thread went more. All too soon, the grotesque and the male genitalia will disappear, I have finished in beautiful really work.
In 1990, which has been taught at Tokyo National University of Fine Arts and Music of his alma mater, Kudo, passed away at the young age of 55. In recent years, re-evaluation is performed all over the world, the retrospective exhibition that is open.
Always, Kudo has been making works that facing the society. Era of live Kudo, the 1960s and 1980s, there were many such artists.
At present, it seems all is incorporated into the market, many artists, as is aimed that you dip a success in it.
Really, that society can not have artists like Kudo, I wonder said that a healthy society?
Thinking such a thing, was after the Tokyo National Museum of Modern Art of the venue.
