Business Overview
The theme of this performance was Romanian-born surrealist Ghérasim Luca, and it was presented by four musicians who have made remarkable achievements in recent years both in Japan and abroad: Paris resident composer Masahiro Aogaki, composer/media artist Tomohisa Komiya, soprano Kanae Mizobuchi, and percussionist Yukari Yagi. Each of them produced and presented performance works that corresponded with his spasmodic works, and at the same time exhibited Komiya and Aogaki works and materials related to Gerasim Luca. French stage actor Christophe Collin, whose life's work is to recite the poems of Luke, was invited as a guest to give a performance.
