■ Artist introduction

Shinichi Sawada

Sawada creates symbolic ceramic art objects that look like fictional animals and humans. Although strange in form, they are strange creatures that look somewhat humorous.
The innumerable thorns that cover the surface create a unique world, and the work has a charm that you cannot forget once you see it.
Depending on how you look, the spine-like protrusions look like sensors that sense the world, and they also appear to be covered by body hair that protects you.
Initially, it started with the creation of a small animal-like object that could be grasped, but eventually it grew in size and developed into a sculptural work in a fantasy form that recalled primitive humans and animals. I went.

Sawada quietly continues to produce in a kiln in the mountains of Ritto City, Shiga Prefecture.

Shinichi Sawada 《Untitled》 year unknown

Kishaba Moriya

Kishaba Moriya has created a dot series that focuses on the bleeding of ink, after producing works in which the letters and letters are written on one side of the paper and works in which shapes such as bells and squares are drawn in series.
This series always starts by hitting the blue circle in the lower left corner.
This circle is slightly larger than the others because the pen tip is in contact with the paper for a long time.
After the first spot, it seems that he is improvising on the color selection of the dots, but it is unavoidable that he has his own production system because there is no color bias on the screen.
In the new “Dot Series” drawn with colored pencils, the swell of colors creates a mysterious landscape.

Kishaba Moriya 《Dot Series No.10》 2014

Imura Momoka 

Creates a round object made of cloth. There are various sizes, from the size to be put on the hand to the size suitable for holding.
It does not have a concrete image, but it is reminiscent of a pet animal or a stuffed animal.
We don’t make big ones from the beginning, but we make small ones to big ones as we grow the objects one by one.
I like pink, so when I arrive at the studio, I wear a pink wig first, and when I’m done with my wig, take off the wig and go home.
Sometimes, I make it by singing, dancing and moving.

Imura Momoka 《Green Ball》2014

Hironobu Matsumoto

There are works of all sizes, from large ones over 3 meters to sketchbook-sized ones, all of which are rich in color, and the details are composed by clear images, and every corner is filled with them to create a story. I am configuring. As you approach the work, you can enjoy the fun of reading it.
The subjects to be dealt with range from large-scale ones such as space and historical battles to minute ones such as fog and bacteria and white blood cells. Regardless of the scale of the subject matter, they all form a kind of world. It can be said that they are introduced through the work, and it became a motivation for the production that the interest in “riddle” such as what kind of law and rule formed and systematized the world was established. There is.

【The Ueno Royal Museum】 Exhibition of works held by The Ueno Royal Museum. Holding

The Ueno Royal Museum

Under the theme of “everyday, everyday life”, I would like to see it at this time of the year.
A work that touches the heart is picked up from the works of The Ueno Royal Museum! 

Our consciousness and society are fundamentally changing due to the infection problem of the new coronavirus, which started in earnest in Japan this February. Under the subsequent declaration of an emergency, restrictions on behavior that were unthinkable until now–requiring to stay as close to people as possible, not to meet, not to meet, not to go out or to go out, and to spend more time at home Now, we have to reconsider the everyday life that everyone used to take for granted.

The Ueno Royal Museum holds a number of winning works from The Ueno Royal Museum Grand Prize Exhibition, which has been held 38 times since 1983.
This time, from this, I would like to see the theme of “everyday, everyday life”
I chose about 80 works I thought.

We make up a group of things that make us feel bright and happy, calm everyday scenes, towns and natures that are always there, and unique imaginations and thoughts from familiar people and landscapes. ..

At the venue, about 40 items from the <diary> series in which print artist Tetsuya Noda recorded family and everyday fragments from the same collection, and works created with Sayaka Akiyama as the subject of Ueno Park will be exhibited. ..
In the simple and straightforward gaze for the everyday life that artists are familiar with, I suppose we can find something important that touches our hearts today.

Main exhibits
・Approximately 80 points from works (oil paintings, Japanese paintings, etc.) winning the Ueno Royal Museum Grand Prize Exhibition
・Approximately 40 works by Tetsuya Noda (prints).
・Sayaka Akiyama “Walk my basic form Ueno Park” 25th December 2008, 3rd April 7, 7th, 14th, 12th May, 16th May”

Kaho Kasuga 「It’s miserable and delicious.」

Oil F100 2020

The feeling of guilt and disgust for greed, as well as the exhilarating refreshing feeling that exists at the same time, have an impact with a photographically extreme three-point perspective. A scene that makes you feel lonely, a bold cut that makes you grasp it and a cool depiction give a strong impression.

Kaho Kasuga 「It’s miserable and delicious」 Oil on display F100 2020 The Ueno Royal Museum

 

Sanae Fujiwara 「Picnic」

Japanese painting F100 2020

It depicts a fun time out with the family.
It seems that the busy time is still continuing, with the dented feeling that people who have been there up to now standing up.
Bright colors with a sense of rhythm excite me.

Sanae Fujiwara 「Picnic」 Japanese painting F100 2020 Ueno Royal Museum

Mika Chiba 「Mysterious」

Oil F100 2017

It successfully captures the effect created by the irregular reflection of the light entering the water surface.
Most of the woman’s body is in clear water, and the delicate light expresses the feeling of coolness and floating.

Mika Chiba 「Mysterious」oil painting F100 2017 Ueno Royal Museum

 

Akihiro Togashi 「FORM, Little Bird」

Acrylic, water-based paint, etc. S100 2000

A large tree-like object is drawn in the center, and animals and birds are drawn around it. There are a variety of materials and techniques, and I use a free technique to sew cloth on the screen, use buttons and paint, and create a flexible screen.

Based on photographs taken by himself, woodcuts, silk screens, and other works that create images of families, vegetables and fruits, shopping bags, sofas, views from the car window, and other things that make you imagine your daily life and events. It is spelled out plainly.
