Open Studio is a special occasion for the audience to see the creative process of residing creators and to hear their talks and discussion with guest speakers.
On 11/10 (Sat), six groups will give talks, and a special talk will be held by Andreas HARTMANN and our guest TSUZUKI Kyoichi on 11/11 (Sun). HARTMANN has stayed in Vietnam, Myanmar, Japan and portrayed young people who resist the traditional notions of religion, politics and society and strive for freedom in the works including "A Free Man"(Japan) and "My Buddha is Punk"(Myanmar). In Tokyo, he researched the phenomenon of "evaporated people" in Japan where thousands are said to disappear every year and explored general and common human desires, longings and fears in the possibility of vanishing without a trace and starting a new life. What is freedom in contemporary society where moving and traveling become part of everyday life and that we seem to have obtained the freedom through mobility? TSUZUKI Kyoichi, who has been to many places not only in Japan but all around the world and has interviewed a great diversity of people, will share his stories.
