The
CCA Project Gallery presented a new work by Rirkrit Tiravanija.
“Regularly each evening at the end of the day, after the offices
are closed down, we (Nobuo, Akiko, and myself) would head out for
dinner. As it is not a very large place, we generally would wound
our evenings in what seems to be the centre of Yahata (or rather more
central). One evening I realised that the pedestrian mall where many
of the sushi and sake bars are congregated, actually has a name scripted
in English on the awning of the entry way, “Passage Cosmo”.
Many thoughts came to mind concerning the idea (and place) of this
passage. The idea of an intersection located with a great distance
from all centres (physical and mental). Yet in this little intersecting
passageway, through the mall, it would be possible to reach to cosmo.” ---Rirkrit
