Are they given shape from something else, withblueprints prepared in advance? What if we instead suppose that they have an auto-systematic property that generates information andpatterns according to their own autonomous configuration and process? Take for instance the way that communication networks naturallyform through the likes of social networking services, or even the process through which street art perpetually innovates the urban landscape.
We can find this type of auto-systematic genesis within every human activity.
Painters, too, are involved in a network of auto-inspiration that yields new elements, stimulated by the colors, shapes, and tactile sensationsthat they themselves bring into being as they create the world of their art. The artists in this exhibition in particular – Yusuke Arai, EnricoIsamu Oyama, and Goro Murayama – develop their visuals by proactively implementing such processes of genesis in the creation of their art.
In this exhibition, we hope to draw attention to this pictorial expression of genesis.
Asai, Oyama, and Murayama each come from different backgrounds. The way each creates units via motifs, strokes, and the act of“drawing”, repeating discontinuously from one to the next, along with the constant proliferation of the patterns that produce these units, canbe translated as the common term that characterizes all three. Especially in light of the sustained “temporal” aspect of these works, we mustregard the efforts of these three artists as a manifestation of a more fundamental formative movement that goes beyond the realm of merevisual art. Let us call this a “Generating Visuals -Inspiring Circuits”: this includes the family of images and divergent drawings that flow forth from Asai; the patterns extracted from the visual language ofgraffiti and the variations thereof, which Oyama has termed “Quick Turn Structure”; and the organic artwork formed from the interplaybetween the woven canvases and bundled strokes of Murayama. All of these come about as unsupported, unique and intrinsic formativeexpressions. They are part of a movement, generating a visual language one could call the “nature of the painter” according to the chainproduction of morphology and perpetual self-inspiration.	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 〒104-0045 東京都港区南青山 2-2-22 篠崎ビル 2FShinozaki Bldg. 2F, 2-2-22 Minamiaoyama, Minato-ku, Tokyo, 107-0062, JapanTEL +81-(0)3-6804-3018 FAX +81-(0)3-4578-0318 MAIL gallery@tsca.jp URL tsca.jp	 Yusuke Asai"origin mountain" 2013, 16 soils taken from local ground, ACAC Aomori (Aomori, Japan), Photo by Tadasu Yamamoto(c) Yusuke Asai, Courtesy of Artist and ARATANIURANOŌyama Enrico Isamu Letter"FFIGURATI #20, FFIGURATI #21", 2012, 3370mm 2450mm, Aerosol, Chinese Ink, Graphite, Marker Pen and Pencil on Canvas,Point B worklodge (NY, USA), Photo by Yojiro Imasaka(c) Ōyama Enrico Isamu Letter, Courtesy of Artist and Takuro Someya Contemporary ArtGoro Murayama“heuristic drift”, 2011, 300 300 350cm, 124 82cm, acrylic medium on weaved hemp strings, gallery αM (Tokyo, Japan), Photo by Ken Kato(c) Goro Murayama, Courtesy of Artist and AISHO MIURA ARTS	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 〒104-0045 東京都港区南青山 2-2-22 篠崎ビル 2FShinozaki Bldg. 2F, 2-2-22 Minamiaoyama, Minato-ku, Tokyo, 107-0062, JapanTEL +81-(0)3-6804-3018 FAX +81-(0)3-4578-0318 MAIL gallery@tsca.jp URL tsca.jp
