"Art is Fun 10: Angelic, Devilish, or Both"
1999-07-03 until 1999-09-26
Hara ARC
Gunma-ken, , JP Japan

Why not come to Hara Museum ARC to enjoy the beautiful, highland meadows and the tenth installment of Art is Fun, the museums popular summer series aimed at making the world of contemporary art less opaque, more accessible, and easier to enjoy for people of all ages. Every year, this specially series introduces the work of young, cutting-edge artists and provides visitors with the opportunity to make or experience art directly through related events, such as workshops and on-site art productions.

The works in this summers exhibition were selected under the theme Angelic, Devilish, or Both. The word devilish doesnt refer to frightening or scary works. It refers to the dual nature that each piece exhibits a nature that at first glance may seem contradictory. For example,something cute on the outside is shown upon closer examination to have a more ominous character. A cold and brusque exterior turns out to be a cover for a more humorous side. In this way, these works free your imagination from normal reality, allowing it to enter another, mysterious world.

Eight artists are featured in this show, all interesting yet devilish in their own special way. Participating Artists: Taira Ichikawa, Izuru Kasahara, Masayo Koizumi, Tae Morita, Yoshitomo Nara, Oscar Satio Oiwa, Hiroshi Sugito, Tatsuji Ushijima
