Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Emerging in the late 1960s and early 1970s, he quickly established himself at the forefront of the loose cohort of artists, now known as Mono-ha, who radically redefined postwar Japanese art through their ephemeral interventions into both institutional and everyday spaces. Often working with raw natural and industrial elements, Suga gained recognition for installations such as Parallel Strata (1969), a fortress-like configuration of slabs of paraffin wax that subtly deformed in response to the environmental conditions at the venue, and Infinite Situation II (steps) (1970), for which he altered the function of a stairwell at the National Museum of Modern Art, Kyoto, by covering its steps with sand smoothed to reflect the grade of the incline. Such works were conceived by Suga as "situations," or expansive fields where objects engage each other through relations of fundamental equality and interdependence. According to Suga, the elements of a situation exist in a state of "being left" that activates viewers by its very resistance to being processed as information. In denying the agency of the artist, this vision was an early argument for the agency of all things.Kishio Suga Writings, 1969-1979 is the first volume in an authoritative anthology of translations that will, for the first time, offer English readers a thorough understanding of Suga's thought. It features the trilogy of formative texts Suga wrote in 1968-69 under the penname Katsuragawa Sei; fragmentary statements published in the exhibition listings section of the magazine Bijutsu Techo from 1972 to 1981; and groundbreaking essays spanning the 1970s.This volume also includes a substantial introductory essay by Andrew Maerkle on the theoretical implications of translating Suga, along with commentary by Maerkle on each of the translated texts, and a glossary of Suga terms. Additionally, an essay by Ashley Rawlings addresses the history of the translation of Suga's artwork titles. Illustrations of Suga's works appear throughout.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The second volume devoted to one of the key figures of his generation in Japan.One of the key figures in Japan's pivotal Mono-ha phenomenon of the late 1960s and early 1970s, artist Kishio Suga has realized a visionary practice of ephemeral, sites-pecific installations and performative interventions into the everyday environment. Throughout Suga's career, writing has been an important element in his artistic process, as he uses his texts to interrogate the institution of art and anthropocentric conceptions of the world.This volume collects Suga's writings from the period 1980-89, when the Japanese art scene was transformed by a museum-building boom triggered by the country's rise to unprecedented economic heights. Having challenged conventional definitions of art through his formulations of the "[thing]" and "being left" a decade prior, Suga shifts his focus in the 1980s toward working with the collective logic of the world. In particular, he embarks on a sustained investigation into the dynamics of "[periphery] surroundings" as the basis for an approach to artmaking in which subject and object are equalized and the marginal or unseen takes on as much significance as that which is centered or seen. Included here are the aphoristic fragments that Suga compiled for his retrospective monograph Kishio Suga, 1988-1968, short statements composed for exhibition catalogues, and long-form essays published in art journals and other magazines during the period, many of which appear in English for the first time.
