Utakata and Debris: Heisei Art 1989-2019
2021.1.23 (Sat) – 4.11 (Sun)
Kyoto City KYOCERA Museum of Art – Higashiyama Cube, Kyoto, Japan

(From the museum website)

Kyoto City KYOCERA Museum of Art is delighted to be hosting this exhibition at Higashiyama Cube, looking back on the art of the Heisei period (1989–2019), with a focus on the collective activities of the artists concerned. Planning was overseen by art critic Sawaragi Noi, who has consistently engaged in highly penetrating criticism of contemporary art since the late 1980s.
Taking as its key words “bubbles/debris,” it explores based on Sawaragi’s point of view how artists responded to the changing times and circumstances of the Heisei period, which was visited by economic stagnation and a series of unprecedented natural disasters.
