at the 59th International Art Exhibition, La Biennale di Venezia. Since its formation in 1984,
Dumb Type has, using its unique methods, woven the relationship between the body andtechnology into its performance works and installations. Having recently welcomed SakamotoRyuichi into the group, Dumb Type presented a new work, 2022, at the Venice Biennale. Thiswork, which spurs thought about how we communicate and perceive the world in the “posttruth” age, will be recomposed at the Artizon Museum as 2022: remap.

From the late nineteenth century to the outbreak of World War I, France enjoyed its Belle
Époque, a time of peace and prosperity. In a society brimming with a lively, free atmospherethat spurred artistic creativity, Fauvism, Cubism, and other new art forms bloomed in France atthe beginning of the century. In time, those developments led to the birth of abstract painting,one of the outcomes of stylistic evolution in painting. Then abstraction shaped twentiethcentury art world. This exhibition explores the history of abstract painting, and its ties to thefuture. Beginning around the time of abstract painting’s birth, it presents abstraction’s rise,trends flourishing, mainly in French painting before and after the war, and the rise of Hot
Abstraction and Abstract Expressionism in France after the war. It also explores abstract art’s
simultaneous emergence in Japan, with the Jikken Kobo (Experimental Workshop), Gutai, andother movements, its multifaceted development, and its connections with the next generation.

Jam Session: The Ishibashi Foundation Collection x Yamaguchi Akira

Drawn to the Irresistible Sensation
September 9 [Sat.] - November 19 [Sun.], 2023

YAMAGUCHI Akira, Graffiti Today,
2021, collection of the artist

YAMAGUCHI Akira, Tokyo (detail), collection of the artist

Contact with the modern—and even more so with modern painting—had anadverse influence on Japan. Modern painting in Western Europe was areaction against realistic and academic painting, an attempt to recover its
essential nature. But what about modern art as introduced to Japan, which
had no history of realistic or academic painting?
Yamaguchi Akira (b. 1969) responded with that statement to the Ishibashi Foundation
Collection, which includes modern paintings by both Japanese and Western artists.
In this Jam Session, we invite you to observe Yamaguchi Akira questioning what "modern," a"Japanese-style code," and "the essence of Japan" mean as he tries to break away from thehistory and art systems imposed by society, driven by a sensation he finds irresistible.

ANZAI Shigeo, Domoto Hisao, Artist’s Studio, Tokyo,
June 1980, 1980/2017

In 1953, a year after the Bridgestone Museum of Art opened, it established its Film Committee.
By 1964, eleven years later, the committee had completed seventeen films documenting artists
at work in their ateliers and their daily lives. In addition, the museum has recently collected
documentary photographs of artists by Anzai Shigeo (1939-2020). Anzai was a photographer
who continued to chronicle the contemporary art scene from the end of World War II on.
Producing these films documenting artists and acquiring Anzai’s work are actions that can beseen as presenting the consistent approach of the Ishibashi Foundations towards archives ofthe arts. This exhibition presents Japanese contemporary art where it happens through thevaluable art videos our Film Committee has produced, works by the artists in those films, andAnzai’s photographs.

Marie Laurencin: An Eye for Her Time
December 9 [Sat.],2023 - March 3 [Sun.], 2024

Marie LAURENCIN, Two Young Girls, 1923

Marie Laurencin (1883-1956) was a female painter active in the first half of the twentiethcentury. She studied at the Académie Humbert and then began her career as a Cubist painter. In1914, she married a German baron and automatically acquired German citizenship. Thus, when
World War I began, she was compelled to seek asylum outside of France. In 1920, she chose
divorce. Returning to Paris, she achieved success at a solo exhibition in 1921. She lived almost
entirely in Paris, even after the outbreak of World War II, and continued creating there until her
death, at seventy-three, in 1956. This exhibition introduces Laurencin’s oeuvre in terms ofseveral themes, and, comparing her work with that of other painters with whom she is related,
explores the fascinating nature of her paintings.
