Escape with us… Japanese artist Kiichiro Adachi is best known for his futuristic sculptures, such as “Squared Hall” (2018), pictured here. Covered in tiny pieces of mirrors, Adachi’s sculptures capture the light as they move, creating a larger, dreamy realm of limitless space. Link in bio to learn more. . . In NYC? Email auctions@artnet.com to schedule a viewing of this work in person at artnet HQ. #KiichiroAdachi #futuristic #futuristicsculpture #mirrors #design #modern #modernart #contemporaryart #contemporary

Name: 足立喜一朗 Kiichiro Adachi Title: drawing for CMY Size:103×73cm Material: ink, color pencils on paper Date: 2015

成田市に設置するパブリックアートとして制作した「CMY」。その為に描かれたドローイングです。 「CMY」は色の三原色に基づき、それぞれの輪の中に赤、青、黄の花を植えます。やがて花は枯れ、種子を落とし、また芽が出て花が咲きます。 その時、赤い花と青い花が交配した花が咲くかもしれません、また輪の外に種を広げるかもしれません。 この自然のサイクルの中で人によって作られた色分布をどのように変えていくのか、それを観察する為の彫刻です。 この三つの輪で構成された彫刻、及びそのドローイングはどこか新型ウィルスの為に延期となってしまった五輪を連想させます。

Have you seen Kiichiro Adachi: cluster at Art-in-Buildings' Travelers Towers Gallery exhibition space in MI? 

Artist Statement: People dance and drink, flirt, and kick up noise, beneath the disco ball, striving to satisfy all kinds of desires. That glittering ball above the dance floor is a symbol of worldliness. But there was a moment it appeared to me as something sacred. Perhaps it was the fog of drink and drowsiness, or the split second of silence birthed by the DJ failing to transition smoothly between tracks. Whatever the case, an ordinary disco ball had seemed to me like a divine presence. The strange calm as though I were gazing at something spiritual, an astronomical event, or a rare natural phenomenon. The moment the ball—rotated by distraction, noise, desire, and chaos—turns to reveal itself as sublime, singular, mysterious, and absolute. The light refracted from the cheap mirrored tiles, creating the illusion of constellations. The ambiguous boundary between the worldly and divine brought to form by a disco ball. I dream of encountering that moment again.
