大阪で観た二つの展覧会──「TRIO」と「今に生きるラスキン」
10月12日から14日にかけて久しぶりに大阪へ出かけました。旅の主な目的は、大阪大学中之島センターを会場に開催された第75回美学会全���大会に参加し、そのセッションの一つを司会することだったのですが、三日にわたったその日程の合間を縫って、会場の建物に設けられているギャラリーで開催されていた(10月20日まで)「今に生きるラスキン」と、そのすぐ近くにある大阪中之島美術館で開催中の(会期は12月8日まで)「TRIO──パリ、東京、大阪モダンアート・コレクション」という二つの展覧会を訪れることができたのは幸いでした。とくに後者は出品作品への興味から、どこかで都合がつけば見たいと思っていました。 「TRIO」展は、パリ市立近代美術館、東京国立近代美術館、そして大阪中之島美術館という三つの美術館を代表すると同時に、文明史と芸術史の双方における近代性をさまざまな角度から照らし出す作品を展観することに…

2024.5.18
5/18は国際博物館の日ということで、本日常設展が無料の東京国立近代美術館に行ってきました。上の写真の橋の��こうに見えているのが美術館です。お天気がよかったので大手町駅から歩いて行きました。

今回、特に心に残った作品の一部です。
一番最後は速水御舟の『京の家・奈良の家』。前に近代美術館に行った時も速水御舟の掛軸に惹かれた私。気になって調べると40歳で病死されているんですね。炎の周りに蛾が群がる『炎舞』で有名だし、もっと長生きした方だと思っていました。
彼の作品をたくさん所蔵しているという山種美術館にも今度行ってみようと思います。

“The Icebergs” (1861 - Frederick Edwin Church) / "Maman" (1999 - Louise Bourgeois)
THE ICEBERGS: The sense of scale on those icebergs in so well done. This piece really conveys their MASSIVE size. At first you glace at the artwork and think they're not so big, until you see the boat at the bottom. And that's just the mast. It puts into context just how huge these icebergs are. It's insane that we have such massive otherworldly structures here on earth, that look so powerful and almost magical. That deep blue in the bottom right corner with the sunken ship just showcases the dangers and the force of nature, and how we don't really know much of what lies beneath. In this big world we are still so. small. and that fucks me up.
And the canvas is huge! Which helps convey the scale of these glorious, magical, terrifyingly beautiful icebergs. (@thegirlsinthecity)
MAMAN: I think there are a lot of different ways to look at it (especially depending on your relationship with your mother), but knowing that Bourgeois' mother was a weaver (or somehow involved in textiles) really makes it hit different. (@beelzeblogging)
(“The Icebergs” is an oil on canvas painting by Frederick Edwin Church. It measures 1.64 m × 2.85 m (5.4 ft × 9.4 ft) and is located in the Dallas Museum of Art.
"Maman" is a sculpture by Louise Bourgeois made of stainless steel, bronze, marble. It measures over 30 ft high and over 33 ft wide (9.3 x 8.9 x 10.24 m). There currently 6 locations worldwide (Tate Modern off display, UK, National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa, Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, Spain, Mori Art Museum, Tokyo, Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, Bentonville, Arkansas, and Qatar National Convention Center, Doha, Qatar).)
