Shozo Shimamoto Reenactment - Moderna Museet 2011

SVENSKA
Återuppförande av en performance av Shozo Shimamoto utförd av konstnärens sonson, under konstnärens ledning. Performancen ägde rum i samband med konferensen An Experimental Conference on Art and Science to Challenge the Mid-Summer Sun. Konferensens titel hänvisar till ett namn på en utställning som Gutai utförde i Japan 1955 och med den parafrasen vill konferensen uppmärksamma den banbrytande konstnärsgruppens arbete. Konferansen är också en hyllning till det 50-åriga utställningsprojektet Rörelse i Konsten. Utställningen ägde först rum på Stedelijk i Amsterdam 1961 med konstnären Daniel Spoerri som den drivande kraften och senare, samma år, på Moderna Museet under ledning av Pontus Hultén. Konferensen innehåller också ett återuppförande av performance verket Proliferation of the Sun av Otto Piene/ZERO och ett helt nytt verk av svenska konstnären Anastasia Ax. Ljud: Lars Siltberg. Symposiet fungerar som ett avstamp för en kommande utställning om performance och måleri som intendent Magnus af Petersens curerar för Moderna museet till sommaren 2012.

Medverkande: Otto Piene, Heinz Mack, Günther Uecker, Ute Meta Bauer, Julia Robinson, Dorothea von Hantelmann, Ronald Jones, Anastasia Ax, Lars Siltberg, Shozo Shimamoto, Fredrik Liew, Daniel Birnbaum m.fl.

ENGLISH
Reenactment of a Shozo Shimamoto Performance led by the artist. The re-enactment was performed in conjunction with the conference An Experimental Conference on Art and Science to Challenge the Mid-Summer Sun. The title refers to an exhibition by Gutai in Japan in 1955. The borrowing of this title for the conference is an acknowledgement of the groundbreaking work of this artist group. The conference is also homage to the 50-year-old exhibition project Motion in Art. The exhibition first took place at the Stedelijk in Amsterdam in 1961, led by the artist Daniel Spoerri, and was shown later that year at Moderna Museet under the auspices of its director Pontus Hultén. The conference also featured a reenactment of the performance Proliferation of the Sun by Otto Piene/ZERO and a completely new work by the Swedish artist Anastasia Ax. Sound: Lars Siltberg. The conference serves as a launching pad for an upcoming Moderna Museet exhibition, ACTIONpaintingACTION in the summer of 2012.

Participants: Otto Piene, Heinz Mack, Günther Uecker, Ute Meta Bauer, Julia Robinson, Dorothea von Hantelmann, Ronald Jones, Anastasia Ax, Lars Siltberg, Dieter Jung, Shozo Shimamoto, Fredrik Liew, Daniel Birnbaum and others. Curatorial team: Magnus af Petersens, Catrin Lundqvist and Tijs Visser

This experimental conference was made possible thanks to collaboration between Moderna Museet, the University College of Arts, Crafts and Design and the Zero Foundation, Düsseldorf.
