Leap-frog
in Kitakyushu
November 22 - December 10, 1999 |
 |
The
project gallery presented a film installation by Marijke van Warmerdam,
who lives and works in Amsterdam.
Van Warmerdam produced a 16 mm film loop in whichn the Japanese tradition
of bowing has been taken as a subject; young Japanese children appear
from behind a very old big tree and bow to each other several times,
then the next appear to start frog-leaping.
As a book in the CCA
Artists’ Book Series, the artist worked
on the diary in the form of accordion fold with a West and an Eastern
side in which a wave from famous Hokusai print is used.
Maijke van Warmerdam stayed at CCA Kitakyushu as Professor of the
Research Program during a month in November, 1999.
