Yoshinori Niwa

In another anticipated exhibition Yoshinori Niwa interprets through performance and instructions the textual/verbal based materials of instruction manuals, constitutions, claims of responsibility, manifestos and political discussions, taken from different ages, countries and contexts. He also combines these with a reassessment of unrealized works such as “Move the National Diet to Fukushima”(2011) and “Transferring All My Savings into the Account of Someone Who Happened to be Behind Me in the Queue for the ATM”(2014). Together with these he also displays for the first time in Japan works such as “Making a Political Speech Intentionally Translated With a Different Meaning”(2013) and “Requesting people in Taiwan who I met by chance to declare if they die, Taiwan will disappear”(2014).
