Besides his writing, Hiraide has explored the possibilities of books as a media in recent years, leading to activities of publishing minimal forms of books and initiating a project of postcards designed and printed by himself using photographs related to his writings. These can be seen as practices that have sprung from his deep exchanges with internationally renowned artists.<\/p>\r\n<p>In this exhibition, Takashi Hiraide applies his unique perspective to the various forms of artistic dialogue that emerge from the astute interconnections of \u201clanguage\u201d and \u201cart\u201d with the intent of identifying and shining new light on the words and published materials that relate to the works of a select group of artists, including those of the collection of the Kawamura Memorial DIC Museum of Art. As for the design of the display galleries aimed at conveying the unique concept of \u201cbooks in space\u201d that occurs when words depart from their usual form and take on creative visual aspects, it is the work of the architect <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aokijun.com\/\" title=\"Jun Aoki\">Jun Aoki<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n<p>Artists include: Joseph Cornell, Donald Evans, Mitsuo Kano, On Kawara, Natsuyuki Nakanishi, Ikko Narahara, Kazuo Okazaki, Shuzo Takiguchi, Isamu Wakabayashi and others.<\/p>\r\n<blockquote>\r\n<p class=\"en\">It is often said that artists create works without the use of language, but doesn\u2019t this seem to be somewhat of an overstatement? In fact, isn\u2019t it true that the great artists are able to extract from within the materials and concepts they use new language with fine nuances of meaning that the human race has never known before? What\u2019s more, aren\u2019t they each newly creating language that is singular in its value? We want to be able to hear such new language, because surely it has the power to lead us to new thoughts and richer, more rewarding appreciation of art.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">Takashi Hiraide<\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n<p>Dates: October 6, 2018 \u2013 January 14, 2019<br>\r\nPlace: Kawamura Memorial DIC Museum of Art\u00a0<\/p><\/article>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kawamura Memorial DIC Museum of Art presents &#8220;Language and Art: Takashi Hiraide and the Artists&#8221; from October, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2010,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spay_email":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"\u8a00\u8a9e\u3068\u7f8e\u8853\u2500\u5e73\u51fa\u9686\u3068\u7f8e\u8853\u5bb6\u305f\u3061\r\nDIC \u5ddd\u6751\u8a18\u5ff5\u7f8e\u8853\u9928\u306710\u67086\u65e5\u3088\u308a\u958b\u50ac\u3002\u5e73\u51fa\u306e\u300c\u8a00\u8a9e\u300d\u3068 \u300c\u7f8e\u8853\u300d\u304c\u92ed\u304f\u4ea4\u5dee\u3059\u308b\u3068\u3053\u308d\u306b\u751f\u307e\u308c\u308b \u300c\u5bfe\u8a71\u300d\u306b\u6ce8\u76ee\u3057\u3001\u7b2c\u4e00\u7d1a\u306e\u7f8e\u8853\u5bb6\u305f\u3061\u3068\u306e\u9577\u3044\u6b73\u6708\u3092\u8ef8\u306b\u3001\u7f8e\u8853\u4f5c\u54c1\u306b\u56fa\u6709\u306e\u601d\u8003\u3084\u8a00\u8a9e\u306b\u5149\u3092\u5f53\u3066\u305f\u5c55\u89a7\u4f1a\u3067\u3059\u3002\r\n#Art #\u30a2\u30fc\u30c8 #\u5ddd\u6751\u8a18\u5ff5\u7f8e\u8853\u9928","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true},"categories":[6],"tags":[54,55],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.adfwebmagazine.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/hiraide_private-print-postcard.png","jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.adfwebmagazine.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2011"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.adfwebmagazine.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.adfwebmagazine.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.adfwebmagazine.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.adfwebmagazine.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2011"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.adfwebmagazine.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2011\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.adfwebmagazine.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2010"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.adfwebmagazine.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2011"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.adfwebmagazine.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2011"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.adfwebmagazine.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2011"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
