2013年夏に瀬戸内の高松市美術館で開催された『大竹伸朗展 憶速』展のカタログの特別版。

7セクションからなる展示構成を反映した7冊の図版冊子、テキスト・資料冊子、瀬戸内の大竹作品に関するポスター、インスタレーション・ビュー冊子、映像作品DVDが、タイトルの布タグがついたニードルフェルトの袋に入っています。

各図版冊子とインスタレーション・ビュー冊子はサイズが全て異なり、表紙の代わりに章タイトルと奥付が印刷された小さなタグが付けられ、平綴じまたは中綴じ（コグチ裁断なし）で製本されています。

テキスト冊子は、一旦仮の表紙をつけてあじろ綴じで製本されたのち、表紙が剥がされた特殊なもの。

-

図版のレイアウトでは、通常の美術展カタログにおいて常套手段であるグリッド・システムを用いず、輪郭が揃えられていないだけでなく、大きさや余白の比例があくまで目分量のバランスで決められています。

これは大竹が自らの手と目のみをたよりに、スクラップを貼り込み、画面を構成する態度を、DTPのレイアウト作業に取り込んだらどうなるかという実験でした。

-

DVDには新作の映像作品「宇和島」（2013 / 撮影1987-89）を収録。

大竹が宇和島に移住した最初期に撮影され、そのまま放置されていた8mmのフッテージを今回新たに現像し、編集したもの。

フィルムの経年劣化による現像ムラも補正せずにそのまま生かした、まさにノイズ・アンビエント・ファミリー・アルバムというべき、非常に美しいサイレント映像です。

なおこの書籍は第48回造本装幀コンクールにおいて審査員奨励賞を受賞となっています。

Press Release:

MISAKO & ROSEN is pleased to announce our return to Kita-Otsuka; the new gallery space situated within renowned architect Akihisa Hirata’s Tree-ness House. We will open with a solo exhibition “A Language All Your Own” by Shimon Minamikawa. The gallery presented its first solo exhibition in December of 2006 – Minamikawa’s “Egypt, a woman of quality , circle and square”. In the years that followed, Minamikawa has developed a unique painterly vocabulary that has been recognized within Japan and internationally – he has participated in exhibitions at the National Museum of Art, Osaka, the National Art Center and Mori Art Museum, Tokyo as well as the European traveling exhibition Painting 2.0 (Museum Brandhorst, Munich, MUMOK, Vienna). His work is included in the public collection of the Museum of Contemporary Art, Tokyo as well as the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea. The present exhibition is supplemented with a text by Sen Uesaki (translated by Andrew Maerkle) and includes new works on canvas and plates; marking a return – of sorts – to motifs which featured prominently in our first exhibition together, “A Language All Your Own” serves as the closing project of our recent series of 10 Year Anniversary events – as well as the start of the fall exhibition season in a new space.
