Toshi Ichiyanagi, Takahiro Kondo
In 1962, Tokyo Gallery organized a show called “The Four Composers,” which included the works of Toru Takemitsu (1930-1996), Toshiro Mayumizu (1929-1997), Toshi Ichiyanagi (1933-), and Yuji Takahashi (1938-). This show brought together the graphic music scores by these pioneers of post-war, avant-garde music. Back then there was a lot of experimentation going on throughout the arts in general. Furthermore, “avant-garde” was a common denominator between the arts, music, and theater, generating dynamic interaction among the various fields. This experimental exhibition brings together music, the plastic arts, and performance. Kondo will create an impromptu clay work, while Ichiyanagi performs a piece composed for this show with violist Mamiko Kobayakawa*. If sound demonstrates the return to silence, then the plastic arts exemplify, in this case, a finished vessel losing its form. The exhibition is the result of the dialogue between the two, a microcosmic representation of the repetition of the creation and destruction of the cosmos.
