\u3010Past Exhibition\u3011<\/p>\n

This exhibition presents artworks depicting views and people of the times when the featured artists had lived, but also artworks focused on the local history produced by artists living in the present times.<\/p>\n

Even now, when we look at the paintings of Mount Akagi, a symbol of Maebashi, that mountain ridge ingrains its unchanging image in our minds. On the other hand, in these artworks we can rediscover the sceneries and the local productions that were popular in the past but are now lost. Some artists also turned their attention to local history and culture and focused their works on this theme. As an example, the work \u201cSachiko\u2019s Dream<\/em>\u201d by Yoshio Shirakawa transforms the experience of an individual into a memory of a time and represents the society and the system that gave birth to that. Another work titled \u201cSilken Dreams<\/em>\u201d by Miyako Ishiuchi depicts the silk cloths called meisen<\/em>, which represent the nameless women who supported the silk industry of Kiryu, the artist\u2019s hometown, and its modernization.<\/p>\n

While experiencing the history reinterpreted and unfold by these artists, will our memories as spectators and the stories that we ended up forgetting revive once again?<\/p>\n
