Feast in Shimoda

Asian Cultural Council

Just got a request to help circulate the grant announcement. People of ACC are really helpful to their grantees.

Michelangelo Pistoletto

I'm a big fan of Pistoletto from my student days. In Yokohama I saw for the second time his live performance. Of course it's performed by someone else. Beautiful.

After Hours

BizArt in Yokohama

Fancy shop space in Koganecho Bazzaar to replace the spot previously frequented by prostitutes.

Akasaka

Arrived in Yokohama on September 10 and had the evening free. Went with Hitomi to the opening of the Akasaka Art Flower 08 in an abandoned primary school. Curated by Kenji Kubota, it cost hugh amount of money to renovate the premises up to basic standard before they could put any art in it.

I met Tsuyoshi Ozawa three years ago and saw him again tonight. He made this kids' wonderland.
