大注目を浴びた池田亮司(アーティストたちによって裸にされたアート・バーゼル、さえも*)2021年度 IKEDA Ryoji attracted considerable attention (ART BASEL Stripped Bare by Her Artists, Even*) 2021 version
Art Basel 2021 got even its post-pandemic groove. The talk of the town became Japanese artist and composer 池田亮司 IKEDA Ryoji’s performative work which set retinas on fire with a spectacular light-and-sound installation inside the Church Elisabethen. The queue in front of his Art Basel Unlimited installation box, showing the latest work “data verse 3”, was the longest in the art fair.
IKEDA considers the trilogy “data-verse 1+2+3” to be his ultimate project, after 20 years of research and execution.
Fortunately most internationally practicing Japanese artists’s works could be found in the venue. Three galleries from Japan, despite the tremendously difficult Corona-related obstacles, had wonderful booths, too. Art dealers from “Taka Ishii Gallery” and “TAKE NINAGAWA” happily showed up in person, whereas “Tokyo Gallery + BTAP” asked the organiser for a proxy, who represented the gallery with bravour, see the attached pics.

The ’Salvage’ series (1983 – 1985), Robert Rauschenberg’s last series on canvas, consists of canvases painted and silkscreened with photographs either collected from magazines or taken by himself.

HA Chong-Hyun 河鍾賢 (born 1935 in Sancheong, South Korea) is a leading member of the movement known as Dansaekhwa (‘monochrome painting’). His use of non-traditional materials and the unique process called bae-ap-bup (‘back pressure method’) broke ground with Korean traditional painting. Ha Chong-Hyun lives and works in Seoul.

Lévy Gorvy in collaboration with Vito Schnabel
Philipp Timischl (born 1989 in Graz) combines image-based media with text, often culminating in site-specific installations. Recurring themes in his work are (institutional) power dynamics, accessibility, and exclusion – generally in relation to social classes, queerness, heritage, and the art world. Timischl lives and works in Paris.
Pace Gallery, New York:
“Painted in 1975, a year after the Pinochet dictatorship stripped Roberto Matta of his Chilean citizenship for his opposition to its regime, L’homme descend du signe questions the possibility of progress in a modern world rent by conflict.”
Cecily (2013) is presented in loving memory of Chuck Close, who died in August at age 81, and as a tribute to Close’s long relationship with the gallery and his friendship with Pace’s founder, Arne Glitchier. This painting depicts Close’s fellow artist, Cecily Brown. Over the course of his career, Close painted multifarious images of himself, friends, and family members, pushing the boundaries of conventional portraiture for more than 50 years.
Best known for his large-scale canvases containing gridded colours, shapes, and forms that give way to legible portraits, Close is widely considered a great innovator in image making. The artist’s practice spanned painting, printmaking, drawing, collage, daguerreotype and Polaroid photography, and finer works, and his experimentations and accomplishments loom large in the history of art.
“Chuck extended the perception of society through his magnificent works and found an inextricable place in the history of 20th- and 21st-century art,” Arne Glitchier has said of the artist. “I feel honoured to have been a part of his life.”

A&E’ is an acronym for Adolf & Eva, Adam & Eve and Arts & Entertainment. ‘A&E’ finds McCarthy transformed into Adolf Hitler, Adam and Stangenberg as Eva Braun, Eve. The project at this point takes the form of one, a feature film series and two, multiple drawing sessions. Adolf is depicted as the epitome of predatory toxic masculinity and buffoonery, while Eva is at once the lover, mother, and daughter. In these works, crude, expressionistic marks from these unrehearsed performance drawing sessions are captured on paper.
Text by the gallery:
“Take Ninagawa is pleased to present a solo exhibition by Gozo Yoshimasu. Launched in the wake of the Tohoku earthquake, tsunami, and nuclear disaster of 2011, “Dear Monster” comprises mixed-media manuscripts composed through the obsessive enumeration of characters and words that have been repeatedly broken up and rearranged into new units of meaning and nonmeaning. Commemorating those who lost their lives in the disaster, the series turns the destruction of language into creative engine. Eleven works from “Dear Monster” are presented here alongside audio recordings of Yoshimasu reading his manuscripts.”
