Preservation of Keiichi Tanaami's Human Events (1975)
Ann Adachi-Tasch
Launching off of the Collection Survey we conducted in February 2018, and based on the lead archivist John Klacsmann’s report, along with researcher Julian Ross’ direction, CCJ is researching and preserving Keiichi Tanaami’s Human Events (1975). The preservation is done by Imagica, with much discussion between the lab, the artist, CCJ, and the archivist, on how the 6-projection work was originally presented, and how it should be preserved and re-presented.
We are excited to finally come to a conclusion. The project is expected to finish in early January, 2019.
