Installation view of \u201cInternational Dialogue” at biscuit gallery<\/em><\/p>\n biscuit gallery (Shibuya, Tokyo), a commercial contemporary art gallery on Shoto Bunkamura Street in Shibuya, is pleased to announce the group exhibition, \u201cInternational Dialogue.\u201d<\/p>\n With the cooperation of curator Jens Petersen, we will introduce a \u201cdialogue\u201d between Japanese and foreign artists through exhibitions.<\/p>\n Installation view of \u201cInternational Dialogue” at biscuit gallery<\/em><\/p>\n We live in times when humanity rejects science and humanism. People in power fail at taking appropriate measures against man made climate change, and lack understanding that oppression and violence only breeds more violence. Polarization between groups of different values widens, and intellectually based arguments are ignored.<\/p>\n In such a state, it\u2019s imperative to nurture settings where persons of different backgrounds can communicate and get acquainted. The art world should welcome all voices, explore new ideas, and challenge the status quo.<\/p>\n Installation view of \u201cInternational Dialogue” at biscuit gallery<\/em><\/p>\n International Dialogue pairs four Japanese artists with four foreign artists. Each pair works in a similar realm, sharing the form of expression, media, style, motif or motivation. The goal is to create a dialogue between their artworks. How do artists of different cultural backgrounds approach comparable questions? What can we see and learn when diversities meet? biscuit gallery\u2019s three floors in Shibuya, plus the space in Karuizawa, provide four distinct venues for dialogue between the pairs\u2019 creations.<\/p>\n We invite you to experience a conversation between Korean and Japanese\u00a0threads<\/strong>\u00a0on the ground floor in Shibuya,\u00a0expressive figurative<\/strong>\u00a0paintings from Tokyo welcoming their Mexican peers on the second floor, and on the top floor a philosophical discussion by\u00a0abstract<\/strong>\u00a0paintings hailing from Sweden and the southern island of Kyushu. In the Karuizawa gallery, memories are shared between\u00a0landscape<\/strong>\u00a0paintings of Yamagata and Taiwan.<\/p>\n Watch how brushstrokes and colours resonate with each other. Listen for light whispers from obscure figures. Feel the warmth shared by connecting textiles. And imagine a world where all humans urge for that same level of mutual understanding.<\/p>\n Jens Petersen<\/p>\n biscuit gallery WEB<\/a>\u00a0 INSTAGRAM<\/a> \u00a0FACEBOOK<\/a> \u00a0YOUTUBE<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[50,51],"class_list":["post-40865","insights","type-insights","status-publish","hentry","category-insight","category-stories"],"translation":{"provider":"WPGlobus","version":"3.0.0","language":"en","enabled_languages":["ko","en"],"languages":{"ko":{"title":true,"content":true,"excerpt":false},"en":{"title":false,"content":false,"excerpt":false}}},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kiaf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/insights\/40865","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kiaf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/insights"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kiaf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/insights"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kiaf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=40865"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kiaf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=40865"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"https:\/\/static-edge.kiaf.org\/web\/2024\/05\/23230430\/DSC02066.jpg\")
