“Absorption / Radiation” is the collective name for four projects; “Art Exhibition” which oversees the exhibition of artworks, “Event” which holds performances, workshops, discussions etc., “Books,” a platform for art criticism and creative expression, and “Satellite” which connects diverse acts. This project was an attempt to transcend the ordinarily assumed constraints of time and space. Since it began last year, numerous events and activities have been planned and held under the “Satellite” project, which aims to get away from the fixed setting of the exhibition hall or gallery and intervene in the real world, orchestrate a succession of multiple simultaneous events, do away with the limitations of genre, and generate interdisciplinary connections. Events are held intermittently at small and medium-sized venues in various parts of the metropolis, with low key gatherings like sketching in Inokashira Park or walking outdoors organized in charming areas of the metropolis everywhere from cities like Tachikawa, Machida, Kodaira, Kunitachi, Mitaka and Musashino, to the 23 wards of Tokyo and beyond the municipalities.
Principle activities: Exhibitions, performances, discussions, lectures, workshops, concerts, and more.
