2021.06.22

“TeamLab Kami-sama’s Forest” will be held for the 7th time. It is a vast exhibition where nature becomes art as it is, and was selected as CNN’s “Outdoor Art Exhibition 2021 in the World to Go”. New works will be released this year. The session will be from July 16th (Friday), 2021 to November 7th (Sunday).

Long continuous life

Mifuneyama Rakuen was created in 1845 (late Edo period) on a site of 500,000 square meters. At the center of the garden is Okusu, which is 300 years old, and you can imagine that it was built while making the best use of the trees in the forest.

TeamLab is working on a project called “Digitized Nature”. It is a project that “nature becomes art as it is” by immaterial digital technology.

The Hiroshima Museum of Art is hosting the exhibition “ZIPANGU: Contemporary Artists Who Defined the Heisei Era” (November 2, 2024 – December 22, 2024).

The exhibition has already garnered significant attention, exceeding 10,000 visitors.

HYAKKEI covered the dialogue between contemporary artist Takashi Murakami and Sueo Mizuma, the curator of this exhibition, held at the RIHGA Royal Hotel Hiroshima. We also conducted an exclusive interview with Mr. Mizuma.

The discussions centered on the aspirations behind the ZIPANGU exhibition and offered forward-looking insights, not only into Japan’s art world but also into the rediscovery of value within Japanese culture by its people.
