Urgent Talk 022:
Lessons from Gutai: Splendid Playground: Situating Japanese Art Globally
* Japanese-English simultaneous interpretation available
This lecture examines the growing prominence of Japanese postwar and contemporary art on the world stage, focusing in particular on the presentation of Gutai: Splendid Playground at the Guggenheim Museum in New York (2013). This lecture will provide insight into some of the curatorial strategies that enabled Gutai to be understood as a movement relevant to global art discourses, and reflect upon a number of recent presentations of Japanese art that have participated in creating a more global discourse about Japanese art, including Roppongi Crossing 2013: OUT OF DOUBT.
