Yohei Taneda

Museum of Contemporary Art MOT, Tokyo

In conjunction with the 2010 summer release of Karigurashi no Arrietty, a new epic movie by Studio Ghibli, MOT will hold a “Karigurashi no Arrietty x Yohei Taneda” exhibition. Production designer Yohei Taneda has won international acclaim with his art direction on such popular movies as Swallowtail Butterfly, Kill Bill Vol. 1, Hula girl, and The Magic Hour.

For this exhibition, Taneda will give three-dimensional development to the physical surround of the characters appearing in the animation movie, in order to bring visitors inside the movie’s world. The exhibition will also display precious materials related to Taneda’s live-action movie art design, as well as production materials used in the creation of this exhibition and Karigurashi no Arrietty.

Also showing:
July 24th Saturday – October 3rd Sunday 2010

Garden for Children
Artists: Mikiko ENDO, Goh IDETA, KOSUGE1-16, Shinji OHMAKI, Saki Satom

Curator: Sachiko Namba, Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo

Recent research in the fields of brain science and developmental psychology would indicate that an infant’s view of the world is not ‘one great blooming, buzzing confusion’ as was previously believed, to the contrary, both intellectually and emotionally, they enjoy a rich world. Garden for Children focuses on the world awareness and mental scenery of small children to produce an exhibition that can be enjoyed equally by everyone, from infants to adults. It will be centered around new interactive and participation works that will fill the entire space created by five groups of young artists and architects.
By allowing adults to share and experience the art world vicariously through the viewpoint, physical sensations and feelings of young children, it promotes intergenerational communication while providing the opportunity to reconsider/rediscover the relationship that exists between people and art. Looking at various things, feeling things, and talking with children; coming into contact with art and appreciating it together creates a rich experience not only for the children but also the adults, offering a valuable opportunity that cannot be gained in ordinary, everyday life.
Furthermore, we will be carrying out workshops for local infants from Koto City and their guardians, both in the museum and at local nursery schools, with the results to be shown inside and outside the museum. In this way, we will explore the function of the museum within the community.
