To commemorate the opening of ICHION Contemporary Art Museum, ICHION CONTEMPORARY will hold the exhibition "GUTAI was live" from January 13 (Monday) to March 29 (Saturday), 2025. After the war, the pioneer art group "Gutai Art Association" was established in the Kansai region, advocating "the pursuit of pure creativity" and producing a series of innovative forms of expression. Its existence is known as "GUTAI" worldwide, and even more than 70 years later, it is still highly praised. This exhibition features new installations and collected works by Shuji Mukai (1940-), a member of Gutai Art Association. We will immerse ourselves in the memory of Gutai from Mukai's perspective, rethink its place in art history, and explore its contemporary value and future prospects. In addition, he created an installation that resonates with the exhibition space of Tadao Ando Architectural Institute, inspired by Goethe's favorite expression "Architecture is solidified music". An unknown rhythm spreads throughout the space, as if a "violin symbol party" is being staged. In addition, large-scale works by Jiro Yoshihara exhibited at the 1970 World Expo, as well as works by representative artists of the Gutai group such as Kazuo Shiraga, will be exhibited. This is a unique space where architecture and art resonate, so please treat it as a special moment for the perfect start of the new year.

春天里的柳絮

February plum blossoms March cherry blossoms are the two major points of view in Osaka Castle Park. When the plum blossoms are in full bloom, the plum aromas of the garden enter the heart and spleen, which is refreshing. There are many varieties of plum blossoms and they are old. The old piles of plum trees are different in shape.
