21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art, Kanazawa

1年ぶりくらいの２１世紀美術館。

ゴールデンウイークなので人出が凄くて吐きそう。

（尋常ではないくらい人が沸いている）

今回、有料コーナーは見たい作品がなかったので無料で鑑賞できる「POP UP ART」を鑑賞。

写真最初のインスタレーションは米国コロンビア大学の視覚芸術教授Sarah Sze（サラ・ジー）の作品「喪失の美学」。

大量生産される製品のみで制作されているらしく、建築的構造の中に自然のプロセスを表現しているそうで、巨大な未来都市の形をしたシャンデリアのようでちょっと素敵。

次のコンクリート作品は、支配構造への反発たるパンクの精神で作品を制作するスイス人作家ユニットのペーター・フィッシュリ（Peter Fischli ） ダヴィッド・ヴァイス（David Weiss）で「

無題・コンクリート・ランドスケープ」。

21美の中にこれだけ客がいるのに何故かここだけ一人も客がいない（笑）。

そっとガラス越しに作品に近づくと案内係の美術員さんがアイコンタクトで奥へと手招き（笑）。誘われるまま、誰もいない外の広いフロアにポツンと佇むこちらの綺麗な長方形のコンクリートを鑑賞開始。

しかし、不思議だ。

何の変哲もないコンクリートの塊なのに、誰もいないところでひとりで鑑賞していると、あらゆる雑念が消えて無の境地というか禅の世界観というか、不思議な感覚を覚える（笑）。

屋外で展示されると、時間と共に雨や光にさらされて埃がたまり、苔が生え、表面に凹凸が生じ、自然の変化が反映される風景表現となるということらしい。

なるほど、このコンクリートの塊から「詫び寂び」を感じ取った自分のセンスは間違いはなかった。

（なんやねん。笑）

2003年のヴェネチア・ビエンナーレで金獅子賞も受賞しているほどのユニットだけあって、こんなありきたりのコンクリートで哲学するパンキッシュなペーター・フィッシュリ＆ ダヴィッド・ヴァイスには今後も注目。

その他にもいろいろなアーティストの作品があったけど、今日はここまで。

帰り際、美術館前の石浦神社から上下黒の法被を着た子供中心の和太鼓奉納演奏が聞こえてきたけど、リズムが普通の「和」のリズムではなくベリーダンスなんかで有名な「アラブリズム」（笑）。

（なんとセンスのいい子供たちなんだ！）

このリズムに気が付いた自分のセンスの良さに再び感動。

そして、観光客にいつものように記念撮影を頼まれて、いつものように笑顔で了解する。

そして夕日を浴びながらフランス人とイタリア人とブラジル人とドイツ人とロシア人でごった返す長町武家屋敷を通って実家に帰宅。

（中国人はほとんど見かけなくなった）

Sarah Sze. "Seamless"

Sze incorporates objects such as tools,ladders and spirit levels adding other components like miniature wooden bridges .The sculpture sweeps across the space in delicate curves connecting the objects into a larger construct.

The way Sarah Sze uses the wall space opens my mind up to sculpture in the space that you are working in, and the space that is available to you.

About the Artist:

Since the late 1990s, Sarah Sze has developed a signature visual language that challenges the static nature of sculpture. Sze draws from Modernist traditions of the found object, dismantling their authority with dynamic constellations of materials that are charged with flux, transformation and fragility. Captured in this suspension, her immersive and intricate works question the value society places on objects and how objects ascribe meaning to the places and times we inhabit.

If a building can not only draw people to its interior but also activate the space around it, then we have the possibility of a more complex reality—urbanity, a reality that is made through practices and interactions, where buildings and other artifacts become actors in a larger story. Small actions, small objects, particularly when seemingly out of place, could have an effect in even the most powerful events or processes.

When I saw this piece, it blew my mind! If I were still making Art, this is what I would be doing. She's incredible!

This is the reason why I became an artist in the first place. Sarah Sze has made art that is universal, all encompassing, transcendent, mind expanding, unraveling the fabric of reality. Just superb!

I went to my parents house today and had good food while watching the Super Bowl. It was nice to spend time with them. I made beans to go with chips but it turned out spicier than I anticipated. I haven’t written much recently. But I should read more.

Watching a YouTube channel of a visual artist called sunshell. It gives me more inspiration to journal or muse about art. I don’t know specifics about where my poetry practice is going. I have a lot of unfinished work. I just don’t know. Reading more might help me. I’ll try to spend more time in books on the topic of art. What about art from life? It’s something to think about but it’s something I’ve avoided in order to feel ok publishing. That is a question I really have stayed away from. But a poem could be about art and life or art as a part of life. I wish I could go to the Joan Mitchell exhibition in NYC. Too bad I’m missing it. I can’t wait to get back there. I would like to see the Sarah Sze exhibit at the Guggenheim. I hope I get there. I just watched a YouTube video about one of her installations. I was thinking that this is life, not a school science experiment. But some science experiments are important and have properties of art. Enough misery about not getting to live in New York. Maybe I should revisit that. How could I make that work for me. It seems like a stretch but it’s ok to think about.

What about my art though. It would be good to take time throughout the week. Around applying to jobs. And read the books I have. They are other worlds. Do I have any ideas about topics or anything? I could explore shelved topics. I think I need to complete a few poems beyond the endless fragments.
