"Our Age" Exhibition
Contemporary Art Center, Art Tower Mito
This event has ended.
Entitled "Warera no Jidai - Our Age," the latest exhibition at Art Tower Mito (ATM) is a group exhibition focusing on 25 different artists chosen from a variety of genres by a selection committee, itself made up of people from various fields, including not just ATM's curators but also members from several other walks of life, such as academia, journalism, and the rest of the museum world.
With an emphasis on the local region around Mito, the exhibition introduces both established artists who have demonstrated uniqueness in their careers, and younger artists who demonstrate great promise.

Reviews
「われわれ」ないし「われら」という代名詞は、まさしくそこで言われる「われわれ」とは一体誰のことなのか、という意識を受け手に対し避けがたく提起するがゆえに、それ自体すぐれて行為遂行的（performative）な言辞であることを免れない。
先日終了した「横浜トリエンナーレ2005」とは、全く正反対の企画展示である。美術館というきちんとした空間（←→ふ頭の倉庫）でという前提はもちろんあるが、地元の作家を中心としたセレクション（←→国際展）で、ほとんどが絵画・彫刻の枠を大きくは出ない小品・インスタレーションが中心。
