SUMMARY:Exhibition: Regeneration — Works by Tomoko Abe
DESCRIPTION:CRS (Center for Remembering & Sharing) announces an exhibition of collaged works by Tomoko Abe. The exhibition opens on Feb 23 and will remain on view through April 25\, 2016. There will be an opening reception with the artist on Feb 27\, 2016 from 6 – 8 pm. \nAbe fastens together found objects and ceramic\, glass and paper structures into bubbling 3D canvases\, evoking the paradox of beauty found in the scattering and accumulation of waste and debris in natural environments touched by human society. Her reclamation\, re-use and re-contextualization of objects echoes the way things degrade\, transform and linger in the world. First encounters with these constellations of disparate bubbles protruding unexpectedly from otherworldly sun scorched canvases steal one’s breath. Wonder compels one to linger and look closely\, experience the “thingness” of these things anew and contemplate our complex and bittersweet relationship to our environment. \nRegeneration \nI saw bubbles today at the wave front during my usual walk on the beach. Fine bubbles that usually disappear into the sand foamed up like fluffy clouds. I always feel a mysterious sense of comfort to see countless bubbles\, being born and disappearing simultaneously without me knowing when or how. But today\, the bubbles did not disappear. When I scooped some foam into my palm it smelled like washing detergent. The inspiration for this show comes from this kind of daily landscape in which a little bit of sadness co-exists with beauty. I would be pleased\, if I could create works that convey a sense of regeneration and power of healing present in this ephemeral world of ours. — Tomoko Abe \nArtist Statement \nI have been inspired by unnoticeable elements of nature\, such as wind\, soil and bubbles\, as well as man-made artifacts such as industrial wastes and debris. I use such seemingly trivial objects in my installations to bring them back to life\, using the power of clay as a universal and embracing medium. Many of these objects are being consumed and thrown out as daily wastes in our culture of mass production and consumption. I incorporate them as cast objects\, along with metal\, glass\, rubber\, tree-bark\, pieces of shellfish and other non-essentials.  In some of my works\, I install them against a backdrop paper with cyanotype print of the pieces. The white shadows\, displaced from the pieces\, may suggest the passage of time or may be seen as spiritual footsteps seeking a connection to their original pieces. Ceramic and glass pieces spread over a wall may seem like small particles in the universe lost in time. Viewing them\, one may get the feeling that the wastes we once threw out as undesired objects are regenerated. At the same time\, it may make us realize how small we are as compared to the cosmos they depict. \nBio \nTomoko Abe graduated from the Edinburgh College of Art and obtained BA in painting with First Class Honour\, during which she also spent half a year at Escuela de Bellas Artes in Salamanca\, Spain\, on the ERASMUS scholarship. She has shown her works in many exhibitions both domestically and internationally and has received various awards\, including First Class Honour Prize for distinguished work and Helen A. Rose Request at Royal Scottish Academy (Edinburgh\, UK). Her works have been featured in the media\, including 500 Raku\, New York Times and Ceramics Art and Perception. Her work ranges from painting\, ceramics and sculpture\, but recently most of her work has centered around ceramic installations.  Tomoko draws on inspirations from evolving and decaying elements of nature and their spiritual imprints. \nhttp://tomokoabe.com \n

SUMMARY:Butoh Workshop with Gio Kusanagi
DESCRIPTION:CRS presents an 8-week drop-in Butoh workshop with visiting artist Gio Kusanagi. Gio Kusanagi studied Butoh (Japanese avant-garde dance) with Moe Yamamoto\, Toru Iwashita\, Kunisuke Kamiryo\, Yoshito Ohno (son of Kazuo Ohno)\, Yukio Waguri\, Seisaku & Yuri\, Ko Muroboshi\, and Kayo Mikami and a Butoh-inspired interpretive dance with Akira Kasai. \nCRS has a long history of presenting Butoh performance and training. Butoh artists to teach at CRS in the past include Shinichi Momo Koga\, Tanya Calamoneri\, and Mariko Endo\, among others. \nThe workshop will take place on Mondays from 1 – 2 pm from April 4 – May 23\, 2016 and will cost $15/session. In conjunction with the workshop\, Gio will present an evening of original dance performance with live music at CRS on Saturday\, March 26\, 2016 at 8 pm. \nIn this workshop\, Gio will introduce \n\nKunisuke Kamiryo’s system of instilling the movement impetus within the body by using the sound of vowels\, along with Akira Kasai’s spoken words visualization system;\nYuri’s warming-up system of movements\, along with basic Butoh walking taught by both Moe Yamamoto\, Kayo Mikami\, and Yoshito Ohno;\nconcepts of “Shin (core)\,” “softness and hardiness\,” “lightness and heaviness\,” “eyes at the back\,” and “movements from the heart\,” taught by Yoshito Ohno;\nSelection of Butoh-fu with the active use of images that Gio learned from Yukio Waguri\, Moe Yamamoto\, and Seisaku\, as he reorganizes the various Buto-fu through the Rudolf Laban’s four dimensions of efforts: (a) weight (light and heavy); (b) time (sudden and sustained); (c) space (direct focus and multifocus); (d) flow (bound flow and free flow).  Furthermore\, Gio will introduce a technique to create a new Buto-fu on your own by translating a 2D image into 4D time-space-continuum.\n\nThe workshop will culminate with the last session in which participants will be encouraged to create their own Buto-fu and informally share each other’s original Butoh dance. \nThe purpose of this workshop is not to expose the participants to the entire scope of Butoh. Rather\, the workshop is designed to provide the participants with the opportunity to experience some of the essential elements of Butoh and thus allowing them to have an insight on how some of these Butoh principles and vocabularies can be applied to new choreographic ideas and inspirations.  This will be an excellent workshop for choreographers who are looking for new choreographic inspiration\, dancers or physical actors who wish to widen the range of their movement vocabularies\, or healthy adults who are seeking the self-exploration by deepening one’s understanding of the internal psyche\, as “the true goal of Butoh is not to impose choreographed movements from outside but to allow the movements to emerge from inside\, and structures are merely the gateways to the ‘inside\,’” according to Tatsumi Hijikata. \n ABOUT INSTRUCTOR GIO KUSANAGI \nGio Kusanagi is an interpretive dancer/performance artist who is a native of Japan. He studied Butoh (Japanese avant-garde dance) with Moe Yamamoto\, Toru Iwashita\, Kunisuke Kamiryo\, Yoshito Ohno (son of Kazuo Ohno)\, Yukio Waguri\, Seisaku & Yuri\, Ko Muroboshi\, and Kayo Mikami; a Butoh-inspired interpretive dance with Akira Kasai; Japanese sword dance with Kensei Namiki; traditional style swordsmanship with Ken Morita; Ballet at various dance schools including Morgantown Dance Studio\, Modern Dance with Bill Evans\, Kista Tucker\, Don Halquis\, Angela Dennis\, Kristina Isabella\, and Pilobolous Dance Company; Jazz Dance with Liz Rossi; Contact Improvisation with Jordan Fuchs and Contact Improvisation groups in Philladelphia; Break Dance at Harajuku Dance Academy; Central Asian Dance\, Persian Dance\, and Middle Eastern Dance with Narah Bint Durr; West African Dance with Jonathan Burbank; and Eurythmy (a form of modern dance founded by Rudolf Steiner) with both Akira Kasai and with Jolanda Frischknecht. He was also trained in Mime\, Laban Movements Analysis (Bill Evans and Kista Tucker)\, Bartenieff Fundamental (Bill Evans and Don Halquis)\, Alexander Technique (Suzanne Oliiver)\, Qigong\, Tai Chi\, and various other forms of martial arts. He has integrated the essences of all the movement-arts he has learned and performs originally choreographed interpretive dance repertories in collaboration with artists of various disciplines. Gio also teaches classes and workshops on  Butoh dance\, Tai Chi\, Qigong\, and dance therapy for self-exploration through various locations in West Virginia\, Maryland\, and New York.  Further\, he has produced multiple dance theaters in various cities\, including\, but were not limited to NYC\, Dayton OH\, Cincinnati OH\, and Morgantown WV. \nGio Kusanagi was the Artist in Residence at Bronx Academy of Arts and Dance in June 2012\, was a commissioned choreographer for the Asian American Dance Festival in Lower Manhattan (“Variations in a Foreign Land #13” produced by Yangtze Repertory Theatre) in September 2012\, a featured choreographer at a June festival at Bronx Academy of Arts and Dance in 2011\, a featured choreographer at Judson Memorial Church Performance Series curated by Movement Research in 2010\,  a commissioned choreographer/dancer at Pittsburgh First Night on 2009\, 2010\, 2011\, and 2012\, a featured choreographer/dancer at Pittsburgh Gallery Crawl in 2010\, a featured artist at Pittsburgh Asian American Silk Screen Gala in 2009\, 2010\, 2011\, 2012\, and 2013\, a solicited and a featured choreographer/dancer at Dragon Boat Festival in Pittsburgh in 2010 and 2011\, a featured and commissioned chorographer/performer at Dayton Performance Art Festival in February 2008\, was a featured artist through the Dayton Circus Art Collectives at Dayton Urban Night in May 2007\, a featured choreographer/dancer at SOS Art in Cincinnati in the years of June 2007\, 2008\,2009\, 2010\, 2011\, and 2012\,  a guest choreographer/dancer at Yellow Spring Street Fair in June 2008\, a solicited and featured choreographer/dancer at Center for Remembering and Sharing in NYC in August 2008\,  a featured choreographer/dancer at Fridge-Fest in Philadelphia in September 2005\, and a featured and commissioned choreographer/performer at Binghamton July Fest in 2004\, 2005. \nABOUT BUTOH \nButoh was originally founded by Kazuo Ohno and Tatsumi Hijikata. Among the Butoh artists Gio studied wth\, Yoshito Ohno is a son of Kazuo Ohno and studied with both Kuzuo Ohno and Tatsumi Hijikata. \nAkira Kasai participated in the launch of first epoch of “Ankoku-Buth-Sha” (the first Butoh company) with Kazuo Ohno and Tatsumi Hijikata\, and Akira was in fact the person who came up with the name of “Butoh.”  Akira’s definition of Butoh is “Dyonesean dance” (where the impetus of movements come from within) rather than “Apollonian dance” (dance movements are structure externally) and Kunisuke Kamiryo\, who was one of highly recognized disciple of Akira\, was one of the individuals who had fully embodied this principle.  Gio’s first encounter with Butoh was Kunisuke Kamiryo’s dance\, which he was deeply inspired. \nMoe Yamamoto\, Yukio Waguri\, and Seisaku are direct disciples of Tatsumi Hijikata\, and they all inherited Tatsumi Hijikata’s Butoh-Fu (literally meaning\,’ Butoh Score’) that gave precise movement vocabularies to Butoh. Gio studied the system of Butoh-Fu with all three of them. Many of Hijikata’s Buto-fu were based on visual inspirations\, though some of them were also based on literary arts\, such as poetry. Toru Iwashita\, Ko Mutoboshi\, and Kayo Mikami are also direct students of Tatsumi Hijikata\, though Toru Iwashita is also known as one of the choreographers of Sankai-Juku and Kayo Mikami is the founder and choreographer of Torifune-Butoh-Sha. Both Toru Iwashita and Kayo Mikami incorporated Noguchi Gymnastic as the foundational exercise to prepare the dancers’ bodies for Butoh and Gio also studied this system. Ko Muroboshi developed his unique system of movements that included frozen motion and extreme release\, laced with sudden involuntary movements.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:  Alone in Fukushima
DESCRIPTION:Learn From 3.11 and CRS (Center for Remembering & Sharing) invite you to screen and discuss “Alone in Fukushima” (2014\, Japanese w/ English subtitles\, 98′). This feature-length documentary chronicles the astonishing story of Naoto Matsumura\, who struggles to survive with the numerous animals abandoned in a small town inside the evacuated zone surrounding the Fukushima nuclear plant meltdown. \nFollowing the screening\, Director/Editor/Cinematographer Mayu Nakamura will address us via video and we will have a short Q&A. Tickets are $15 and are available online\, by phone (212-677-8621)\, and in person at CRS. \nOstriches\, cows\, hogs\, cats\, a pony and a dog…Animals roam freely in lush greenery in the evacuated nuclear zone. And there is one man who stayed behind\, creating his own Eden. 55 year-old Naoto Matsumura lives alone with these animals in Tomioka\, a town located only 12 kilometers away from the melted-down nuclear power plant. In the last few years\, Naoto has been the focus of media attention\, being covered by CNN\, ARTE and other major overseas networks. But due to government restrictions\, his story has remained largely untold in the Japanese media. Until now\, there has never been a feature-length documentary film on him and the reality of life in the exclusion zone. An accidental hero or a fool on the hill? Naoto is an ever-intriguing\, complex person who has firmly remained behind in his hometown-a place Japan is trying to erase from the map. “Alone in Fukushima” follows his life with animals in the zone over the course of a year. \nhttp://aloneinfukushima.com \n\n\n\nLearn From 3.11 was founded in 2011 to create an opportunity for people to study together about the actual situations in the disaster-stricken area and the related radiation problems by periodically holding seminars and events.

Tickets are $20 in advance and $25 on the day of the show and include wagashi (sweets) for the spring season\, which is most celebrated for the brief appearance of the beautiful cherry blossoms.

An elegant refined presence perfectly poised\, she played with precision\, beauty and the utmost confidence….” — San Francisco Examiner \nThis will be the third in a seasonal series of music concerts called Four Seasons in New York — Gems of Japanese Music. After many centuries\, the brilliance of traditional Japanese music is still being passed on to the present day. Come and experience the sounds of koto and shamisen and enjoy the taste of the four seasons here in New York. This concert series will feature each season’s representative traditional works along with the colorful and delicate Japanese style confectionaries. \nEach season is expressed through ingredients. Spring traditionally begins with sakura (cherry blossoms)\, broccoli rabe\, strawberries and raspberries\, followed by elderflower\, rose\, edamame and sansho (Japanese pepper) in summer. As autumn approaches we’ll pick chrysanthemum\, apples\, grapes\, chestnuts and hazelnuts; and yuzu and kumquats in winter…. Even within one season\, the taste and the form change gradually from hashiri through nagori. \nConcert Program:\nMiyako no Haru (composed by Yamase Shoin Ⅲ) solo shamisen\nSakura-gari (composed by Yamada kengyo) koto\nMirage Dance (composed by Kin’ichi Nakanoshima) solo koto \nmochi Rin / Bite-sized mochi dessert made with organic bean paste\, seasonally fruits and flowers in NY.\nWe present a new type of mochi that doesn’t quite exist in Japan\, by infusing New York’s locally-sourced ingredients into Japan’s popular traditional dessert —the stuffed mochi rounds\, such as daifuku and sakura-mochi — and mixing in rin\, the element of restrained grace.  http://www.rin-nyc.com \nMore about Yoko \nAs a frequent soloist and collaborator\, Japanese born Koto/Shamisen performer and singer Yoko Reikano Kimura has performed in NYC\, Chicago\, Tokyo\, Kyoto and many other cities\, featuring a wide-ranging repertoire from classical Japanese music to improvisational pieces.
