John Cage's Japan: A Japan Society Performance Series

John Cage in Japan (1962) – Photo by Yasuhiro Yoshioka, Courtesy of Sogetsu Foundation They called it the “Cage Shock.” In 1962, the iconoclastic American composer John Cage toured Japan for a legendary series of concerts that served to draw attention to the rhymes between his works and the sounds of avant-garde and classical Japanese music. The tour cemented Cage as a pivotal figure in the East…

吉岡康弘 作品集 限定版 写真集 YASUHIRO YOSHIOKA

美術家・吉岡康弘的首本攝影集（版權頁標示為作品集）。限量發行的私家版。全書由裸體照片構成「拆解與組裝」「轉型期與過渡現象」「人間=機制」三大章。幾乎分辨不出是肉體的哪個部分，形式時而充滿強烈對比、時而為極端的特寫，其方法論拂去了既有裸體影像的呈現方式。作者自述其創作「試圖同化人類及其性愛 欲測試攝影之偶發性與自己意識下所把握的<扭曲>衝擊後的反應」。此書還收錄了作者在1962年第14屆讀賣獨立藝術家協會展（Yomiuri Independent）中，因被控訴猥褻而被強制撤除的女性器官之攝影作品也以折頁方式收錄其中。書本一開頭為美術評論家・中原佑介(1931-2011)的撰文「肉體之內的人類」。此攝影集同時為《日本寫真集史1956-1986》(赤々舎)中被介紹的其中一本。

美術家・吉岡康弘の初めてとなる写真集(奥付では作品集と表記)。部数限定の私家版で、「解体と組立」「変態周期と過度現象」「人間=メカニズム」の全三章からなるヌード写真で構成されている。肉体のどの部分か分からないほどフォルム自体をハイコントラストにしたり、極端なクローズアップ多用したりなど既存のヌードのイメージを払拭する方法論が取られている。著者曰く、「人間とそのセックスをメカニズムに同化し 写真における偶発性と自己の意識が把握した<歪み>との衝激反応を試みる」とある。ちなみに本書中には1962年の第14回読売アンデパンダン展（Yomiuri Independent）で、猥褻であるとして除外処分を受けた女性器の写真作品も折込みページとして収録されている。冒頭には美術評論家・中原佑介(1931-2011)のテキスト『肉体のなかの人間』も所収。『日本写真集史 1956-1986』(赤々舎)で紹介された内の一冊。

David Tudor, John Cage, Yoko Ono and Toshiro Mayazumi, Japan, 1962

John Cage and David Tudor visited Japan in October 1962 at the invitation of the Sogetsu Art Center (SAC). Over the course of the month they gave seven concerts in Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, and Sapporo, causing a sensation that would become known as “the John Cage shock.” But even before the legend settled in, documentation had already been arranged. Cage recalled that a photographer “snapped everything from the time I got off the plane with David.” The photographer, Yasuhiro Yoshioka, was commissioned by SAC to accompany Cage and Tudor everywhere they went. At the end of their stay, Yoshioka compiled his photographs in two albums as a present for Tudor—one focusing on sight-seeing and the other on performances. Together, the volumes constitute a visual record of an itinerary that was soon reduced in most accounts to a simplistic narrative of shock. (You Nakai)

Kazuhiko Kato, Osamu Kitayama, and Norihiko Hashida in Three Resurrected Drunkards (Nagisa Oshima, 1968) Cast: Kazuhiko Kato, Osamu Kitayama, Norihiko Hashida, Kei Sato, Cha Dei-dang, Fumio Watanabe, Mako Midori. Screenplay: Masao Adachi, Mamoru Sasaki, Tsutomu Tamura, Nagisa Oshima. Cinematography: Yasuhiro Yoshioka. Film editing: Keiichi Uraoka. Music: Hikaru Hayashi. Nagisa Oshima's attempts to unsettle his audiences usually took the form of serious explorations of social dysfunction like Cruel Story of Youth (1960), Boy (1969), and The Ceremony (1971) or sexually provocative films like In the Realm of the Senses (1976), but Three Resurrected Drunkards plays more like A Hard Day's Night (Richard Lester, 1964) than any of those often grim and brutal excursions into the dark side of contemporary Japanese life. It begins with three young men larking about at the beach, accompanied by a giddy Japanese pop song. When their clothes are stolen and replaced with others, the film goes off into  a series of mostly comic mishaps. But there's a dark side to their larking about from the beginning: One of their gags is an attempt to restage the Pulitzer Prize-winning photograph by Eddie Adams of a South Vietnam general pointing a gun at the head of a grimacing Viet Cong prisoner. They take turns playing the general and the victim as the third critiques the grimace on the face of the one playing the victim. It turns out that the clothes thieves are South Koreans who are trying to sneak into Japan to avoid military service in Vietnam. The Koreans have a gun, with which they threaten the three young Japanese. Along the way, they also get involved with a young woman and an abusive older man who may or may not be her husband. At one point, the film simply stops and starts over at the beginning, but this time the characters know what happened in the first part and are able to change things around. It's all a fascinating blend of rock movie high jinks and serious social commentary: Oshima is satirizing the Japanese prejudice against Koreans, among other things. Some of the satire is lost on contemporary audiences, especially in the West, but Three Resurrected Drunkards is a fascinating glimpse into its director's imagination and political indignation.
