Painting Treatments, Gutai Performance
-This is the first large-scale solo exhibition of a performance artist at the National Art Center, Tokyo. Somewhere in the back of my mind was the presence of the Tadasu Takamine exhibition in 2011, the recent Dumb Type and Chim↑Pom exhibitions, and the Rei Naito and Shimabuku exhibitions I saw this summer. I hope the “swell” of Japanese performance that artist Yoshio Shirakawa refers to will continue in Generation Z!
