PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


Bonelli ArteContemporanea

TADASHI MORIYAMA
AMNESIAC
OCTOBER 3 – NOVEMBER 6, 2009





Opening Saturday 3rd October 2009 – 6.30pm

Bonelli ArteContemporanea resumes the exhibition programme with
the Autumn solo show of the Japanese artist, Tadashi Moriyama.
The artist, who is living in New York, presents his new works where
the incisive and unique mark is its distinctive character. The
techniques are several: acrylics, gouache, collages, wood and
canvas, just to mention some.
“Amnesiac” is telling the story of a nowadays hero “who lives in
a city where building imitate each other to extreme sameness and
continues to grow with expanding tentacles that eats the sun and
defecates the moons. The hero struggles with the loss of his
original home (Tadashi Moriyama)” with all tools he can find.
The intricacy and obsessive mark making process that is evident in
each ink and gouache work. In his art we can retrieve references to
Indian miniature painting, Buddhist and Hindu paintings, 15-16th
century Italian paintings and Alchemist paintings as well
experiences in Tokyo and New York.
Each painting is rife with apocalyptic imagery rendered in countless
repetitions of a few motifs including waffle-like gridded squares
forming architectural structures and tubular wobbly connectors
slithering in and out of buildings and bodily orifices.
The stories behind each series are based on themes of creation and
subsequent destruction of cities, memories, space and time.
Technological devices and digital media function as manipulators and
instigators of fear, death and hopeful renewal.

In this occasion there will be the launch of the catalogue of the
exhibition with the special contribution of Eric Shiner, Milton Fine
Curator of Art at the Andy Warhol Museum (Pittsburgh, USA).
