“Feeling to Thought Thought to Feeling“

By Walter De Maria

感覚を思考に　思考を感覚に　byウォーター　デ　マリア

(One of text book of art class for junior high school students)

What is the art?

At the first stage of beginning of drawing, I just draw what I want to see and what I want to paint, as much as I seek. (It’s still hard to have vision for create)

But I become to think what the art is.

Whenever I see great artworks, I lost confidence. I know Comparing is not good and it does not need to compare to other works.

In that days, i came across a great word from some gallery that I applied for open calls.

“Keep doing what you’re doing and keep expressing yourself in your own unique way. You are the only person who can make your art and express your own visual voice. It’s important that your voice be heard and seen!” (Clapping hands!!)

The art is uncertain thing. Visual Sense is up to each person and good evaluation should be made if the sense is matched.

In order to get certain answer, I have read some books about art and visited many museum/exhibition.

Here’s One of books I read, "Japan island, Travelling contemporary art" (「日本列島　現代アートを旅する」).

Author is intiative person of Naoshima art project in Japan and he is introducing top 10 master pieces that you can watch in Japan, which is including Isamu Noguchi, Ron Muek, Walter De Maria, Mark Rothko and so on.

In his book, He described an art as to watch and interpret a work leads to create another new thing.

Actually, according to him, Sen No Rikyu, a founder of tea ceremony, once started to use a korean china cup to resemble a great tea ceremony.

he also stressed out the importance of expression by words when you are impressed with some work.

coloring effect (beige, kahki, safran) カラーの効用

iroka — Sat, 09 Nov 2019 00:39:39 +0000

Below is my fanart work that inspired from an indian film "Kesari".

It's about Saragarhi battle took place in 1897 in India, in which only 21sikh warrior got battle against 10,000 enemies from Afganistan. Moreover 20 of them is originally a soldier in charge of communication of military who has no experience of actual battle. Upon one honorable soldier's personnel move, salgali troop has changed to holy one under the name of Sikh.

For them, It’s also a holy battle under the name of Sikh and name of honor. The film focused each sikh warrior one by one.

What impressed me the most is coloring effect. Base color in the film is sand beige and kahki.

Military outfit and background are almost in these color.

Sometimes the film put other contrast color and makes the scene look more beautiful. Most important color to sikh is safran, which becomes film title. Kesari means safran in Hindi languages.

In the film, this color is used at most important episode.

There is brutal visual as well as it's battle film. However it's a beautiful work.

And coloring effect is a must to watch!

It's from some picture of the exhibition named "THE BOOKS THAT CHANGED THE WORLD" organised by Kanazawa industrial University. Surprisingly it's free of charge despite many inspiring content.

You can see 1st publish of each book that Kanazawa industrial University has at the venue. As far as I recognizes, these books has published from 15 C to 20 C. It varies from archetecture to mathmatic, science, species, medical, chemical.electricity.

iroka — Sun, 01 Sep 2019 14:39:27 +0000

Finally it comes to my city!

it's the exhibition that I longed to watch it since I knew his work, Tatsuya Tanaka on instagram.

"Minuture life 〜World of Tatsuya TANAKA"

He is good at making minuture work using our familiar daily products like a sponge, staples, keyboard, breads，plates, a tape etc.

His resembling idea is so superb!!

Resembling teqnique has often been used in Japanese culture since ancient Japan, in mythology. Especially it's used in japanese gardening style like karezansui. dry garden style.

In his works, wonderful unique idea can be seen anywhere, which breaks our stereotype in our mind.

juvenescence〜Weathering with you

iroka — Sun, 25 Aug 2019 09:49:16 +0000

It was 5th time to watch it.

The name of the film is "Wearing with you(Tenki no ko)" directed by Makoto SHINKAI.

He became world-widely famous for previous film, "Your name(Kimi no na wa)"

Seems It's been spreading over the world like India, France, Indonesia. etc.

Viva! Japan made animation.

The story is based upon weather. You could see many types clouds and various beautiful sky and rains. When I watching it, I even feel so cool while so muggy summer in Japan. Hope you will learn about clouds and weather more through the film.

Other than that, other important factor is juvenescence. I felt it must be a film for awkward age.

One of main character is a girl who bring the sun exists there, she is teenage. Other main character is a boy coming from an island near Tokyo. He is also teen age.

Whenever I watch this film, I felt their painfully awkward & unstable feeling much through main characters, Hodaka(boy)and Hina(girl).

main charctor.... A boy, Hodaka and a girl, Hina

in the film.

If you have a chance to watch it, pls catch the chance!!

The meaning of Animation exhibition is held at art museum

iroka — Sat, 10 Aug 2019 13:11:41 +0000

↑ Fukuoka city art museum

↑it's located in Ohori park, Fukuoka

At first I'll let you know I am not Animation fan nor Gundam fan.

Currently, at Fukuoka city museum, in Fukuoka city, "TOMINO Yuhki's world" exhibition, who is famous for a great general director of Gundam, is opened until 1 Sep.

Not only Gundam fans, but also many non gundam fan go to watch it. It said it's realized upon one of curator's strong request to Mr. TOMINO.

As strongly recommended exhibition, there is many related events as well, in which, some of his works (film "IDEON" ) are on screen at the museum.

Animation film screening at the art Museum!?

Museum must be changed so much.

I joined one of events after I watched the exhibition. I got to know why his exhibition is held at the museum.

Universal theme, such as ''life", "love", "family" and "peace" , is

ultimately organized in his works and give people impact into their soul.

Theme of "IDEON" that screen show is how good we should live. After the show, I even heard a big applause.

I become understand how much his works have affected people's life.

At the museum, no more silent..

Whether fine art or animation or gunpla work, good work is greatly applaused, not so good one is so-so.

Salvador DALI exhibition /サルバドルダリ展覧会(版画展)

image 1. lecture memo by me

Super Hot, muggy, humid these days, isn't it?

While muggy weather, I and my friend visited DALI exhibition held in Chikugo city, Fukuoka, Japan that just opened because there is a lecture about Dali on that day.

Despite very famous artist but it's still unfamiliar who actually he is and what surrealism is.

Acc to the lecuturer, who is specialist of Dali, there is even a misunderstanding concept

about surrealism. it's not a reality in dream nor just odd.

Surrealism is a result of ultimated thinking, just like super happy.

if no fixed concept, you will see more reality in front of you.

Dali is a great multi talented artist, he tried to express his inside bias surrealism.

Meanwhile he used several motif to his works many times. The motif is very familiar thing to him like his wife, egg, stick, ants, bread, landscape nearby etc.

I'm impressed with his talent again.

Very fine but impressive, Odd but very hard learner.

I didn't know he created logo of Chupa chupps. Do you remember in Indian movie, Baahubali, King Balaladeva uses a weapon similar looks Chupa chupps?

it became my another nutriation before watching Dali's work.

Now I also draws, so I took a closer look to his touch of works than before and took many time to complete watching.

venue, Geibunkan in Chikugo, Fukuoka

Article in japanese 日本語

毎日暑さが続いておりますが、友人とダリ版画展にいってまいりました。

目玉の、TVにもでてるダリ研究家の方の話を聞いてからいったので、展覧会をより楽しめました。

ダリはスペインのカタルーニャ地方の生まれで、スペイン産のいわゆるイケメンで、風貌はエキセントリックな風にみえますが、他の写真みると、普段は穏やかな目をされていて、表舞台では演じているある意味お笑い芸人とおなじような感じ？

展覧会は版画展で、ダンテの神曲の挿し絵からはじまります。これが版画とは！

ブロンズ像もありました。15歳の時の版画編にまじり、画家の採点表をつけていたのが興味深い。フェルメールが大好きのようで、シュールな画風だけど、古典画家がお好きなよう。自分の採点までしている(しかも高得点w)

個人的にはチュッパチャップスのロゴデザインがダリによるものだという話が興味深かったです。(→バラーラデーヴァ王に伝えなければw)

カタルーニャはUKにいた時に、マヨルカ島出身者がいて、故郷に尋常でない誇りを持っていたのが印象的でした。

はー、アートはいいなー。

How inspiring of her works!

So colorful and creative form!

Today I stopped by IMS (shopping, restaurant and many interactive complex mall in Fukuoka, in which u can visit unique art gallery) and came across her exhibition.

Luckily I can also enjoy collaboration dance performance using her costume twice.

At the exhibition site, Costume trial experience is provided without any additional, many visitor enjoyed it.

I was one of them. At that time, i asked someone to take a movie my turnaround in the Costume. Turn movement created a beautiful shadow on the ground and her friend (my camera man at that time. w) took the shadow by her camera.

Thanks for notifying me about the shadow.
