Haruki Ogawa opens his just renovated studio to show his latest works, the creation process and his approach to organization of "space for an artist". Several created during this summer paintings will be on display while unfinished works and massive installation-like accumulation of painter's tools and materials will lead the visitors through the layers of Ogawa's works in progress.

We are planning barbeque for the opening reception and foreign and local Frantic friends atmosphere, while our guests can also enjoy last warm days of this year and beautiful nature around the studio located on significant for Japanese history site, namely right at the battlefield of Mimasetoge, a fight which took place in 1569 between the forces of Takeda Shingen and Hojo clan leaving 900 dead samurais behind.

Macoto Murayama in "Heaven and Hell. From Magic Carpets to Drones"
Boghossian Foundation at Villa Empain, Brussels, Belgium
2015 March 6 - Sept. 6
"Somewhere, beyond good and evil, there is a garden. I will meet you in it."
Djalal ad-Din Muhammad Rumi
Macoto Murayama will present his works from the series titled "Botech Composition" (prints and video installation) in the exhibition "Heaven and Hell" organized by Boghossian Foundation, on view at the Villa Empain (Brussells). The show will broach the theme of flying machines and carpets from different angles: the symbolism of old carpets and the symbolism of the geometry of the gardens inspiring it, the age-old dream of flying and imaginary flying objects, the world seen from the sky, the occupation of space by satellites, and the worldwide development of drones and its consequences.
We are delighted to announce Frantic collaboration with American musician C.Love who created a commissioned piece for the presentation of the video work by Murayama. We will bring the result of their collaboration to the public view in WEB later this month and will announce the dates and links in further newsletters.
