Hirofumi Sakamoto's essay "The Self-Referential tactics of Early Video Art in Japan" published

blog

Meander is a space for documentation and experimentation within our website, a place to reflect on our projects and artists, as well as a way to explore intersections between those works, artists, and themes we study under our mission (Japanese experimental moving image works made in 1950s-1980s), and those that fall outside of our mission’s specific framework of timeframe, genres, and nationality.

Meander may take multiple forms including essays, introductions to artists and their work, online screening programs, or special digital projects. Offerings in Meander may suggest oblique angles from which to see CCJ’s mission-specific works, artists, histories, or practices.

Ann Adachi-Tasch

We are pleased to re-publish text by Hirofumi Sakamoto (partner researcher and president of Postwar Japan Moving Archive) about the range of use of video in Japanese moving image and fine art practice in Japan starting in the 1960s. The English version of this text was originally published in the Vital Signals: Early Japanese Video Art (Electronic Arts Intermix, 2009) catalog and DVD publication.
