📚NEW TITLE📚 ‘Goda Sawako: A Retrospective’

The very first and largest-ever retrospective of "Goda Sawako" has just been published!
・
・
・
Born in Kochi, Goda Sawako (1940-2016) spent her childhood playing in the rubble after the air raids during the war, and collecting rocks and pieces of glass or metal that had melted in the heat. After moving to Tokyo in ’58, she enrolled at the commercial design course of Musashino Art School.

Following her first exhibition in 1965, Goda engaged in artistic work across a variety of media, including sculpture, painting, and photography. The experience of collaborating with Kara Juro (1940– ) and Terayama Shuji (1935–1983) expanded the scope of Goda’s work.

Her works—“junk figures” made out of waste materials, other objets d’art that exude a mixture of eccentricity and eroticism, and photographs and paintings dominated by decadent tones—reflect the times in which they were made, while at once being compatible also with commercial culture.

In 1985, Goda made the daring experiment to migrate to Egypt, and after re-turning to Japan, she threw her previous style overboard, in order to shift to a rather original form of creative practice. The style that she went on to refine while exploring her inner workings, and inspired by the “lens effect”, was a prismatic and dazzlingly colorful affair.

Me and Me

The first collection by a rising star of the SNS generation.

With her signature bob haircut, Izumi Miyazaki pops up everywhere in her photos, floating, split in half, multiplying amid objects and settings that should look familiar, but that have been transfigured by her surrealistic and ironically humorous outlook. Since her college days, her works have wowed viewers on Tumblr, attracting coverage by Time, Libération, and CNN; her attention on the self is at once a satiric take on her own selfie-obsessed SNS generation and an evolution of the time-honored photographic genre of self-portraiture. This aptly titled first collection presents Miyazaki at the start of what is sure to be a groundbreaking-and fun!-professional career.
