EXHIBITION
BIRDS
Featuring artists including Yukari Motoyama, whose works deconstruct the elements of painting, and Futoshi Miyagi, known for a practice that confronts his identity as a sexual minority, this group exhibition will explore the representation of birds in modern and contemporary Japanese literature and music. Also drawing on sources ranging from Olivier Messiaen’s 13-part piano solo Catalogue d’oiseaux (Catalogue of birds, 1956–58) to philosopher Alphonso Lingis’s book The Community of Those Who Have Nothing in Common (1994), the exhibited works will shine a new light on the otherness of birds as both hidden presences and sudden visitors in urban lives.
