Panorama of Japanese graphic scene  The organization of a double exhibition, which gathers three generations of Japanese artists that have influenced the international art scene from the 60s up to now. This project focuses on underground and avant-garde Manga in the field of visual arts, with popular and original drawings, forms, which has been edited by committed publishers. This recognition started in 1964 when Garo Japanese publishers discovered and edited underground and iconoclast graphic artists. Nowadays this legacy can be seen internationally for instance with the Raw, a review published by Art Spiegelman. This double exhibition entitled Mangaro and Heta-Uma is divided in two parts: one in Marseille (France) at la Friche la Belle de Mai and one in Sète (France) at the MIAM (International Museum of Modest Art) in October 2014. The first chapter is the exhibition Mangaro which displays a series of original Garo magazines. The second, Heta-Uma is the “live” version of the first chapter. The exhibition presents the pre-punk and post-hippie Japanese creation, by bringing together objects, posters and specific productions such as graffiti or performances.

Both concerts were full, and won acclaim locally. The concerts drew considerable attention from many music fans, gathering in Umea for the music festival UxU which took place in the same week.

SAUNA in the middle of the Esplanade! When Mr.Hayashi came to Riga and had a choice to get know Latvian culture in person, he was amazed how many things there are in common in Latvian and Japanese ancient cultures. But still there were also lot of things different. These two aspects were taking into consideration when the idea was born. The clash of two worlds that generates a new one by merging together understanding for traditions, importance of power of nature and human. In fall 2014, in a very city center in one of fountains of Esplenade onsen will be built. This interactive installation will be as paraphrase for public bathing. In Japan this is onsen, in Latvia this is swimming pool, because Latvian sauna requires privacy. You go into the sauna only with people that are close to you: relatives or people whom you like and trust. On the one hand this interactive installation demonstrates respect for nature, on the other hand ambitions to take a control of it.  City inhabitants and guests will have a possibility to take a shower in a log cabin and then enjoy outdoor wood-fired bath.

3-12 Oct. 2014

Artist's profile:

Yasuhiko Hayashi  The artist Yasuhiko Hayashi was born in 1971 in Higashiosaka. In 2001 he graduated from Planning Design Department, Faculty of Fine Arts of Kyoto City University of Arts. In 2001 together with Yusuke Nakano they established an art unit called Paramodel. Drawing on the industrial landscape of their native East Osaka, the members of artist collective Paramodel create dense but playful micro-worlds. Their work typically involves reorganizing everyday materials, such as toy railway tracks or plumbing tubes, into vast and complex systems covering the floors, walls and ceilings of gallery spaces, often creeping down hallways and into gardens. Paramodel’s modular systems are able to occupy any given space and are alive to their site: local communities are often invited to assist in the construction of the works, while elements of the location can be included as subject and material. Paramodel has had solo exhibitions in Japan and took part in group exhibitions all over the world. Their works can be found in several public collections. http://www.moriyu-gallery.com/artists/profile.html?artist_id=3&l=jp

Artist profile

Ryoji Ikeda Ryoji Ikeda is a Japanese sound artist who lives and works in Paris. Ikeda's music is concerned primarily with sound in a variety of "raw" states, such as sine tones and noise, often using frequencies at the edges of the range of human hearing. The conclusion of his album +/- features just such a tone; of it, Ikeda says "a high frequency sound is used that the listener becomes aware of only upon its disappearance" (from the CD booklet). Rhythmically, Ikeda's music is highly imaginative, exploiting beat patterns and, at times, using a variety of discrete tones and noise to create the semblance of a drum machine. His work also encroaches on the world of ambient music; many tracks on his albums are concerned with slowly evolving soundscapes, with little or no sense of pulse. In addition to working as a solo artist, he has also collaborated with, among others, Carsten Nicolai (under the name "Cyclo.") and the art collective Dumb Type. His work matrix won the Golden Nica Award in 2001. www.ryojiikeda.com
