Shopping Arcade / Higashimachi Fureai Hiroba
Exhibition Plan Summary
Using a fairy door as a motif, you can wander into a mysterious world and peer into it...
Children and adults alike will want to know what's on the other side of a small door.
If such a work suddenly appears in the place where you always play or look at it...
The usual park where children play becomes extraordinary with artwork.
I want to create a space as a "fairy labyrinth" that will become a great seed for imagination.
Biography
2012年中祖厚志（京都芸術大学講師）を中心に様々なジャンルのメンバーで構成された子ども達とアート、社会をつなげる活動を行う集団として生まれました。
多くの展覧会、ワークショップを開催する中でも”妖精の扉”をモチーフとした作品を沢山企画・制作を行なっています。
子ども達のイマジネーションを広げ、創りたい”場”と”機会”を作り、大人や社会も子ども達の作品を楽しみ尊重する…そうした自由な芸術環境を作り続けています。
It was born in 2012 as a group led by Atsushi Nakaso (lecturer at Kyoto University of Arts) and made up of members from various genres that engage in activities that connect children, art, and society.
Among the many exhibitions and workshops held, we plan and produce many works with the motif of "fairy doors."
We continue to create a free artistic environment that expands children's imaginations, creates the spaces and opportunities they want to create, and allows adults and society to enjoy and respect children's works.
Artist Statement
ピカソ・スイッチ（Picasso.switch）は子ども達とアート、社会をつなげる作品を制作するために企画された集団です。
多様な現代アートが多く存在する中、素晴らしい作品が生まれるもののその難解であったり非共感性などから多くの一般観覧者と乖離が生じていることも少なくありません。
よって創造する喜びや表現する楽しみ…原初より内在する好奇心を子ども達や普段アートを意識していない大人や社会に対してアートや創造は身近にあるということを知ってもらい、高い垣根を取り払い共に進むことのできる作品を企画・制作し自分達自ら制作する”イマジネーションの種”を作り続けています。
Picasso.switch is a group designed to create works that connect children, art, and society.
There is a wide variety of contemporary art, and while some wonderful works are produced, they are often difficult to understand or lack empathy, which often alienates them from the general public.
Therefore, the joy of creating and the joy of expressing...the curiosity that has existed since the beginning of time, we want children, adults and society who are not normally aware of art to know that art and creation are all around us, and remove high barriers. We continue to create ``seeds of imagination'' by planning and producing works that we can move forward with, and by creating them ourselves.
