Encouraging people from around the globe to send in photos of themselves, JR has printed these photos and is now pasting them in various locations. JR’s first destination was Tunisia where he has covered a wall with photos of the people in the very same spot where a portrait of Ben Ali was kept. The symbolic gesture serves as a testament to the power of art, giving some hope for the future to the people of Tunisia.

Japan society

At New York’s Japan society, the exhibition ‘bye bye kitty!!!: between heaven and hell in contemporary japanese art’ features the works of sixteen artists engaging in critical dialogue with tradition and contemporary culture.

Many of the works sample from traditional aesthetics: a large triptych by hisashi tenmyouya treats the subject of battle in imagery characteristic of traditional depictions, but illustrates the feral brutality of war rather than the expected lofty religious imagery. likewise, yamaguchi akira’s ‘Narita international airport’ adopts the perspective of seventeenth century illustrations of kyoto, but with airplanes circling the skies and the classic misty clouds cast in a yellow suggestive of pollution. Other works include the debut of Kohei Nawa’s ‘pixcell-deer #24’, a taxidermized deer whose skin has been covered with different sized plastic beads; large-scale paperwork installations by Tomoko Shioyasu and Haruka Kojin; and Chiharu Shiota’s ‘dialogue with absence’, which links a painted wedding dress, pumps, tubing, and red-dyed water.

A new exhibition from the german photographer Thomas Kalak at the Picasso Art Museum in Münster features his work documenting the electricity and telecommunications cables that appear omnipresent in Bangkok. The cables spread into the furthermost corners of the city and grow into even the smallest kitchen to let them partake in the state-of-the-art power supply and technology. the photographs offer a terrifying, but also fascinating portrait of a system that seems to have emerged independent of any consideration of the living space of people while visually guiding the flows of energy that keep the city alive.
Kalak’s documentary view finds expression in an unfalsified snapshot aesthetic that puts what one sees in the center of attention and tackles an aspect of everyday culture, providing a window into life in this city. The exhibition is open from march 19 through july 3, 2011 and coincides with the publishing of a book of the entire series documenting 10 years of the project.
