Noritake Kinashi London Exhibition -moment-
 |
|
"Approaching people, connecting with people and extending a helping
hand to people. Using hundreds of hands as a motif, the 'REACH OUT' series
represent chains of 'human connection', which I value the most in my life."
Noritake Kinashi |

In June, for the first time in the UK, anglophile and polymath, Noritake
Kinashi, the Japanese artist, actor, musician and comedian, will be exhibiting
the latest phase of his ongoing creative project, 'REACH OUT'.
Noritake Kinashi's passion for drawing started at an early age, inspired
by the physical landscape and the feeling it evokes, for him, the act of
drawing was, as it still is now, very personal. Kinashi reached a creative
turning point in 1994 in Paris on a shoot for a TV programme, when he had
to make, without any preparation, on a large canvas with a black marker
pen, a drawing of the landscape along the Seine. This experience led him
to produce an extensive body of work upon his return to Japan and to his
first solo exhibition in the same year.
Kinashi's signature style often involves the reoccurring motif and daily objects, and represents his intuitive take on humanity. With his dynamic and non-conformist, yet evolving brush style, the exhibition, a reflection of his fundamental artistic beliefs, will showcase a series of paintings created as a result of his unique observational point of view.
Noritake Kinashi London Exhibition -moment- comes on the heels of his retrospective exhibition, Kinashi Noritake Exhibition × 20 years INSPIRATION -moment of curiosity, which toured eight major museums in Japan between 2014 and 2016, attracting 430,000 visitors. Additionally, he held a highly acclaimed solo exhibition in NY in 2015. For the London exhibition, about 15 pieces on show have been specially selected and are being shown for the first time. They will then be travelling back to Japan to be included in a major nationwide-touring, solo exhibition from 2018-2020.
Kinashi says, "To kick off this show in London is a very personal matter to me, since I am often inspired by the raw energy and creativity that London offers. Being a comedian on the other hand, I have always believed in the power of laughter, which encourages peace within oneself. Therefore, I express the same thought on canvas. That is my message."

“近づく手。繋がる手。助けを差しのべる手。“リーチアウト”と名付けたアートシリーズで、僕は何百という手のモチーフを描いている。ここで表現している事は、“人と人の結びつき”。これは僕にとって、人生の中で一番大切なこと。”

アーティスト、俳優、ミュージシャン、そしてコメディアンと多方面で才能を発揮する木梨憲武。2018年6月ロンドンでアーティスト木梨憲武による“リーチアウト”プロジェクトの最新作が並ぶ、イギリス初の個展が開催される。
幼少の頃から、身の回りの景色や日々の感情など、ごく日常的なことにインスピレーションを受けながら絵を描き続けてきた彼にとって、絵を描くことは非常にプライベートな行為だった。1994年そんな彼の気持ちに大きな変化が訪れた。パリでのテレビ番組の収録中、全く何の準備もなくマーカーペン1本で大きなキャンバスにセーヌ川を描くことになったのだ。このことをきっかけに日本に戻った木梨は精力的に多くの作品の制作を始め、同年度に初の個展を開催するまでに至った。
木梨のスタイルは、繰り返し描かれる人間愛に溢れるモチーフや日常のオブジェに代表される。瞬時に本質を見抜く独特な観察力により捉えられた対象物が、大胆で型にとらわれず進化し続ける彼の筆使いによって、作品として描き出されているといえる。
ロンドンでの木梨憲武展-moment-は、日本国内8つの美術館を巡回し約430,000人の動員数を記録した2014年から2016年の巡回展“木梨憲武展×20years INSPIRATION-瞬間の好奇心”と大成功を収めたニューヨークの個展（2015年）に続く展覧会となる。ロンドン展のために特別に選ばれた約15点の新作は、2018年から2020年にかけて日本を巡回する大規模な展覧会にも展示される予定である。
ロンドン展に向けて木梨は抱負をこう語っている。
“ロンドンが放つ純粋なエネルギーや創造性には刺激を受けることが多い。そんなロンドンを皮切りに巡回展を始めることは特別な意味がある。またコメディアンとして笑いの力を信じているし、笑いは人々に平和な気持ちをもたらすものだと思ってる。この気持ちをキャンバスに表現する。これが僕のメッセージだ。”
