Both he and his wife liked cats, and at one time, they kept a dozen cats in their house. Living with cats around him every day, Inokuma naturally came to view them with an artist’s eye. The wide range of his cat depictions—from realistic sketches to simple line drawings and oil paintings using formal distortion—is testimony to his love of cats and efforts to capture their essence. This exhibition will look at Inokuma’s cat pictures from varying perspectives, such as style, technique, and how he combines cats with other motifs.

Doing so, he has captured the “life” his subjects possess as well as “death” inseparable from “life.” The varying weight of life and death felt in each photograph can be seen as a reflection of the fragility of human existence and of Araki’s own life, adding to the depth and appeal of his work.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThis exhibition selects, from among the vast number of photographs taken over the years, photographic works manipulated in some form to make us more strongly conscious of life and death and to blur the border between them. The works show him stepping outside conventions to try something new and looking with great honesty at photography and himself. The works, variously attempted as direct expressions of the desire for photography born from his emotions at different times, break free from conventional boundaries and take on new challenges, once again conveying Araki’s sincere attitude toward both photography and himself. Including new works such as Flower Cemetery, an homage to the flower artist Yukio Nakagawa (1918–2012) from Marugame City, this exhibition offers a glimpse into how Araki continues to engage passionately with photography—capturing both “life” and “death” through his lens.

Monthly events with changing exhibits, a catalogue that diverges from the exhibition, Kaneuji’s own self-designed promotional materials, and moreover his process of exchanging roles with novelists, designers, musicians, actors and viewers—all these mutually influencing facets will serve to activate the show, providing a cross-section and layering of the many “others” within the “solo” Kaneuji, while suggesting yet further developments in his on-going creative activities.\u0026nbsp; From the exhibition introduction\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e・COLLAGE\/ROMAN \/UTOPIA: B5 size, 208 pages, with a poster\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e・Dialogue Interview Article: A5 size \/ 36 pages \/ English\/Japanese\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e・Assembly Instruction: B6 size \/ 208 pages \/ English\/Japanese with a special sticker\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e・KANEUJI TEPPEI MIMOCA: A4 \/ 32 pages \/ Japanese and English\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e・Teppei Kaneuji's “ZONES”DVD *Includes events held during the exhibition\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003ePublisher: Mitsuo Murai \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003ePublished by Nanarokusha Publishing Inc.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eFirst Published in July 2016\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eMaterial: paper \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eWeight: 880g\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MIMOCA ウェブショップ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45398008004777,"sku":"1234521019008","price":4070.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0688\/5497\/2585\/files\/TOR50886.jpg?v=1749891960"},{"product_id":"item_1552","title":"Catalog Our Beloved World","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThis is the catalog for the exhibition “Our Beloved World” held December 20, 2015 - March 27, 2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe world in which we live is fraught with problems—problems we are apt to simply turn our backs on. If we want to keep living happily and comfortably, hereafter, it is important that we take a stance of looking sincerely at the world and trying to find some small way to make a change. This exhibition presents works by four artists, each of whom reflects on their own position and creates works by engaging deeply with the issues rooted in their respective contexts. They offer ways of engaging with the world and shed light on a society just half a step ahead. These works, imbued with faint signs of hope, encourage each of us to recognize the realities surrounding us and serve as a catalyst for gradual change—ultimately leading us toward a more flexible and open society in the future.

By reflecting on your own relationship with what you wear, why not take this opportunity to discover new ideas to enrich your daily life through fashion?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eExhibiting Artists\u003cbr\u003eRyoko Aoki, Masashi Asada, Keisuke Kanda, Takehito Koganezawa, COSMIC WONDER, Benjamin Sommerhalder, Miranda July, Susan Cianciolo, Yurie Nagashima, Kazunari Hattori, Elein Fleiss, Takashi Homma, Kaoru Yokoo, Pascale Gatzen, BLESS, FORM ON WORDS, Sébastien Jamain\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLanguage: Japanese and English (bilingual)\u003cbr\u003ePages: 192 pages\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: .29.8 × 21.2 cm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e［\u003c\/span\u003eCONTENTS］\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e・Photographed by \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eTakashi Homma\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e・Introductin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e・Q\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e＆A with Artists by Nakako Hayashi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e・Opening Talk : \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003ePascale Gatzen , \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eNakako Hayashi , Yukari Yamaguchi,\u0026nbsp; Mio Yamaguchi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e・\u003cem\u003eThe Future\u003c\/em\u003e Post-Screening Discussion Speaker\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e : \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eTakashi Homma, \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eNakako Hayashi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e・Report on FORM ON WORDS\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e・Graduation \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003ePhotograph\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e : Two Projects by \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eKeisuke Kanda and \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eMasashi Asada\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e・Artist Profile \u0026amp; Exhibition Note Text by Kanako Furuno\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e（Curator,The MIMOCA Foundation\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e）\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e・List of Works and Gallery Map\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e・15 fragments from \u003cem\u003eExpanding Fashion\u003cbr\u003e・\u003c\/em\u003eFashion as a Life Companion Text by Mizuki Takahashi\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e（Senior Curator,Art Tower Mito）\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e・\u003c\/em\u003eTowards a New World\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e・\u003c\/em\u003eAcknowledgement\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAuthor and Editor\u0026nbsp; \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eNakako Hayashi\u003cbr\u003ePublished by DU BOOKS\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e（Disk union Co.,Ltd.\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e）\u003cbr\u003eSupervisor\u0026nbsp; Mizuki Takahashi\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e（Senior Curator,Contemporary Art Gallery,Art Tower Mito）\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MIMOCA ウェブショップ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45398009708713,"sku":"1234521012009","price":2750.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0688\/5497\/2585\/files\/TOR50787.jpg?v=1749891181"},{"product_id":"item_476","title":"BUTSUBUTSU","description":"\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThis is a related book for the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mimoca.jp\/en\/exhibitions\/butsu-butsu\/\"\u003especial exhibition Butsubutsu\u003c\/a\u003e held from July 15 to September 23, 2012.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eIt features things collected by the painter Genichiro Inokuma, selected by the stylist Miyoko Okao, and photographed by the photographer Takashi Homma.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eOver the long life of a painter, various things in the home become truly good friends to us; some coexist quietly like lovers. — Genichiro Inokuma\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eAs well known from his book Painter’s Toy Box (Bunka Publishing Bureau, 1984), Inokuma had a side as a collector.

Upon returning to Japan at the age of 22, he quickly gained recognition as a promising young artist. After the war, he became one of Japan’s leading painters, exhibiting his works both domestically and internationally. Until his passing in 2005, he continued to create art with remarkable energy. Wakita is known for his vibrant paintings featuring familiar motifs such as children, birds, and flowers. Throughout his nearly 80-year career of consistently depicting the world he loved, he continually refined and deepened his painting through the masterful composition of motifs and color fields, as well as the study of richly expressive matière.

Through works that depict the human body, the exhibition invites viewers to appreciate its formal qualities while also reflecting on life and existence.

Through the diverse expressions found in these works, the exhibition encourages viewers to reflect on the body not merely as a material entity with function and mass, but as a living being—one that possesses a unique form, spirit, consciousness, and a network of relationships with others.

Ohtake began exhibiting in the late 1970s, and has since participated in major international exhibitions including Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev’s documenta 13 (Germany) and Massimiliano Gioni’s 55th Venice Biennale (Italy). He has had numerous exhibitions both in Japan and overseas, including a large-scale solo show that opened at the National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo and traveled to venues in Ehime and Toyama. Spanning nearly half a century, his practice has produced an immense and diverse output driven by staggering creative energy. Among his vast body of work, this exhibition focuses on the Retina series as a lens for deeper exploration of Ohtake’s unique world.\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRetina was conceived in Ohtake’s studio in Uwajima, Ehime, where he relocated in 1988. He worked intensively on this series through the early 1990s, and has continued developing it alongside other groups of works ever since. The retina is a thin, transparent membrane at the back of the eye that detects light and transmits visual information to the brain via the optic nerve. Ohtake gave this name to a group of paintings in which he greatly enlarged discarded Polaroid test film bearing traces of light, and coated the surfaces with a layer of clear urethane resin. Two distinct elements – the plane of the photographic image and the transparent coating – are unified through the viewer’s retina, coming together in the mind as new images that carry vestiges of time and memory. In the new Retina works now in progress, Ohtake’s series continues to evolve. Photosensitive materials, left to age and deteriorate over long periods of time, are visually imprinted with that very passage of time, and as the images are covered in many layers of transparent coating, the scenes that emerge from Retina continue to stir viewers as if evoking untapped memories.\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to 12 ambitious new Retina works, the exhibition centers on a new relief work approximately three meters tall that incorporates sound and light into the Retina series, as well as a group of works anchored by a large, previously unexhibited Retina from the early 1990s. The core of the exhibition consists of works that maintain an ongoing dialogue with Retina through the lenses of time and memory, including the large-scale installation Retinamnesia Filtration Shed, now realized at the scale originally envisioned; the ongoing gouache series, begun in the mid-2010s; and the oil painting series. We invite you to explore the mesmerizing, ever-growing world of Ohtake’s series, which encompasses a huge number of works that connect the eyes, film, and photography to the concept of the Retina series.\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMIMOCA has held more than 150 exhibitions, but this will be one of the largest and most densely configured in its history.

We are pleased to present a solo exhibition of Akane Saijo (1989–), grand-prize winner in the 1st “MIMOCA EYE” exhibition. Saijo creates organically shaped clay sculptures, using them to produce moments when viewers grow viscerally aware of their own and other people’s bodies. Struck by how pottery’s hollows resemble the hollow spaces in the human body, she in recent years has created works suggestive of the body and its organs and held performances of blowing breath and sound into their hollows, seeking in this way to extend her body and the bodies of other performers. Hoping to examine more deeply the boundary between artwork and body, this exhibition will additionally feature glass works produced through a process of blowing air into their interior. Making ceramics means touching the clay with hands, shaping it with hand movements, and leaving hand marks on its surface. Hence, Saijo views ceramics as an act of becoming viscerally aware of her own body and a practice of communicating with the world. In performances, she has newly introduced the act of transport to explore the kinds of communication possible between the artwork and the body, between the interacting bodies of people lifting and carrying, and their bodies and the physical surroundings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan is=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLanguage: Japanese and English (bilingual)\u003cbr\u003ePages: 96 pages\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: 25.6 × 18.4 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x-scope qowt-word-para-0\" id=\"E297\" is=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan id=\"E298\" is=\"\"\u003eTexts\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e：Akane Saijo,Hirokazu Tokuyama,Madoka Matumura\u003cbr\u003eTranslation\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e：Christopher Stephens\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e（pp.73,79,87-89),\u003cbr\u003eAmstutz Communications\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e（p.77),\u003cbr\u003eDarryl Jingwen Wee\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e（pp.82-84),\u003cbr\u003ePhoto\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e：Takeru Koroda\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e（pp.1-72,94_1,\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e94_4,5),Keizou Kioku\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e（pp.78-79),\u003cbr\u003eMasahiro Yamamoto\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e（p.\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e94_2)\u003cbr\u003ePhoto courtesy\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e：ARTCOURT Gallery\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e（p.\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e94_1,\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003ep.\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e95_4,5),\u003cbr\u003eLOCO GALLERY\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e（p.\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e94_2)\u003cbr\u003eDesign\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e：Yuri Suyama\u003cbr\u003ePrinting and Binding\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e：LIVE Art Books Inc.\u003cbr\u003ePublishers\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e：Marugame Genichiro-Inokuma Museum of Contemporary Art,\u003cbr\u003eThe MIMOCA Foundation 2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan is=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x-scope qowt-word-para-0\" id=\"E325\" is=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan id=\"E300\" is=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MIMOCA ウェブショップ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46637846692009,"sku":"1234520041000","price":1980.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0688\/5497\/2585\/files\/63d1069b45bcb5e29b9ddef70a528f25.jpg?v=1764466260"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0688\/5497\/2585\/collections\/karolina-grabowska-H_eb_VfG2Ow-unsplash.jpg?v=1740568508","url":"https:\/\/shop-mimoca.xyz\/en\/collections\/books-catalogues.oembed","provider":"MIMOCA ONLINE SHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
