■ Programme of the Exhibition of Award-winning Works
□ Exhibition
1. Exhibited Works
In the National Art Center, Tokyo’s spacious exhibition area, dynamic installations, graphic art works,
interactive art, games, gadgets, experience-based works and exhibitions of manga and animations along
with their related documentation can be viewed. The exhibition is centered around the Award-winning
Works of the four divisions of the JMAF.
Exhibition Space Design:
NAKAMURA Ryuji (Ryuji Nakamura and Associates)
Born 1972 in Nagano Prefecture. After finishing a Masters course
at Tokyo University of Arts and Music, he worked for the Aoki Jun
Office and in 2004 founded Ryuji Nakamura and Associates. Besides
the design of private houses and stores, he also creates exhibition
spaces, installations in museums and stage design. Among his
major awards are the “Good Design Award” (2006), “The Great
Indoors Award” [Netherlands] (2007) and the “JCD Design Award”.
Exhibition Concept:
I have been working on a concept which, to the maximum extent
possible, exploits the width of the 2,000 square meter exhibition space
in order to create an experience intimately connected to that specific
space. The large roof hanging down from the center of the ceiling creates
corridors varying in height and thereby gradually divides the space. This
suggests just one possible approach to assembling, in one space, a
collection of “Media” works which are usually considered "placeless".
<List of works included in the exhibition>
not including the works of the Manga Library. Please check the JMAF Official Website for up-to date information. http://j-mediaarts.jp/?locale=en

Carsten NICOLAI, in his work “crt mgn”, makes magnetic waves, which cannot be
perceived in everyday life, visually and audibly observable. “the blank to overcome” was
created by MIHARA Soichiro, known for his use of foam, which has neither definite shape
nor weight and transforms like a giant blob, thereby making directly visible the form of
“society” to viewers. Based on these two works, which allow us to perceive phenomena
and become aware of the present moment, this talk event will reflect on how media arts
trigger our perception of the world.
