Concept | 近年の小清水作品は、複数の作品から成り立っている。モノの素材や存在意味を深く追求する70年代の“もの派”から出発した彼は、同時に人々が長く生活の中になじんできたさまざまな形態や色彩からはずれることはなかった。箱、櫃、長持、器、建物といった「包むもの」「入れもの」などを基層におくことによってそれを空間へと解放する作業に徹してきたように思われる。つまり器物の風景化である。緑青をふいた6基の舟形は、市立図書館閲覧室から見える中庭にあって、雨水に青空を映しながら、読書人の想いを連れ出す。 Koshimizu's recent works often consists of multiple works. Since his earliest career in the 1970s as an advocate of “Mono-ha”, a movement in pursuit of significance in materials and the meaning of existence, he remained faithful to various forms and color schemes that have long been part of our daily life. His art may be an endless devotion to things that “wrap” and “contain”, such as boxes, chests, vessels, bowls, buildings, etc., and to their liberation in his artistic space. In short, it is the landscaping of containers. The six patinated boats are placed in the courtyard visible from the reading room of the municipal library, where they reflect the blue sky on the rainwater collected on them and take the readers’ thoughts out for a walk. |
