村上隆 靈氣 京都

Takashi Murakami Mononoke Kyoto

走在當代藝術前沿的藝術家村上隆（生於1962年），將在今年迎來建館90週年的京都市京瓷美術館舉辦大型個展。目前主要在海外發展的村上隆，時隔八年再次在日本舉辦大型個展，也是他首次在東京以外的日本城市舉辦個展。

A large-scale solo exhibition of works by Takashi Murakami (b. 1962), an artist at the forefront of contemporary art, will be held at Kyoto City KYOCERA Museum of Art as it celebrates its 90th anniversary. For Murakami, who has developed his career primarily overseas, this will be his first large-scale solo exhibition in Japan in about eight years and his first outside of Tokyo.

村上隆以往企劃的展覽《超平面（Superflat）》曾在2000年至2001年在日本和美國各大城市巡回展出。該展覽發布的“超平面宣言”在當代藝術領域産生了重要影響。憑藉這一概念，村上隆不僅將日本傳統的繪畫表現形式和以動漫、漫畫和電子遊戲爲代表的流行文化聯繫在一起，還將二戰前後日本人的美學和社會風貌，以及資本主義經濟、政治和宗教都平面化，並用各種手法將其融入到整個創作過程中，從而創造出多種多樣的作品，對藝術的價值和本質意義提出質疑。村上隆的藝術生涯，可以説是以來自日本的獨特視角，不斷挑戰和刺激着以歐美爲實際規範的國際藝術界。

The exhibition “Superflat” curated and organized by Takashi Murakami toured Japan and the U.S. from 2000 to 2001, and together with the Superflat Manifesto that accompanied it, had a significant impact on the contemporary art scene. The concept not only linked traditional Japanese pictorial expressions with popular contemporary culture represented by anime, manga, and video games, but also considered the sensibility and social aspects of the Japanese people in the postwar period, as well as the capitalist economy, politics, and religion on a flattened plane. By using diverse methods to incorporate this concept into his overall creative process, Murakami has come to create a wide range of works that question the value and essential meaning of art. His career can be seen as an ongoing effort to challenge the international art scene, in which the Western values have become the accepted norm, providing new stimulus from a uniquely Japanese perspective.

本次展覽的舞台是京都，這是村上隆自其職業生涯早期就深感興趣的江戶時代（1600-1868）畫家們的活躍之地，也是各種藝術和藝能仍然生生相息的地方。展覽將展出約 170 件作品，其中大部分是新作，包括新繪製的超大型作品、具有代表性的系列作品以及首次在日本展出的作品。敬請期待大作同台的新村上世界《村上隆 靈氣 京都》。

The exhibition takes place In Kyoto, the city that was a center of activity for Edo period painters in which Murakami has deeply been interested since the beginning of his career, a place where diverse forms of art and performing arts are still very much alive and intermingle. Please look forward to encountering a new world of Murakami in “Takashi Murakami Mononoke Kyoto,” an exhibition comprising around 170 predominantly new works including newly painted masterpieces, representative series, and works that will be exhibited for the first time in Japan.
