Fujiko Nakaya (Bilingual edition) Paperback / softback

Edited by Sarah Johanna Theurer, Andrea Lissoni, Anne-Marie Duguet

Paperback / softback

Description

Fujiko Nakaya is one of Japan’s most important contemporary artists.

Participating in the 1960s performances of the New York-based collective Experiments in Arts and Technology (E.A.T.), she became internationally renowned for her immersive fog artworks.

First created for the Pepsi Pavilion at Expo ’70 in Osaka they defy traditional conventions of sculpture by generating temporary, atmospheric transformations that physically engage with the public.

Driven by early ecological concerns, Nakaya’s ground-breaking work is based purely on water and air—elements that have particular significance in light of the climate crisis.

From the artist’s early paintings to her fog sculptures, single-channel videos, installations and documentation that reveal Nakaya’s cultural and social references, this in-depth survey offers a comprehensive overview of the distinguished artist’s work.
