Exhibitions Current exhibition program Akira Isogawa: Printemps Été |
|||
| Curator Katie Somerville of the National Gallery of Victoria has worked with Japanese-born Australian designer Akira Isogawa to create an exhibition of recent work that shows how Isogawa's work is inspired and developed as well as the finished objects. Displayed on cut-out oversized dolls, a key element of the design is the influence of origami, but reinvented anew. The exhibition opened at the National Gallery of Victoria in December 2004, and travels to Singapore in 2005, then to Manila and Bangkok in 2006. "I have so many ideas that it is almost frightening. If I started to write down ideas there would be hundreds or even thousands — so it is a matter of finding something relevant to what I am doing. Ideas are always there in abundance..." Akira Isogawa as quoted in the exhibition catalogue. |
