Rebirth: Recent Work by Mariko Mori
Friday, October 11 — Sunday, January 12
Using Japan Society's unique indoor waterfall as its backdrop, Ring is the first work one encounters in Rebirth. A literal representation of the cycle of life, death, and rebirth, Ring sets the stage for the remaining works in the exhibition.
An icon of 1990s Japanese pop art, the visionary artist Mariko Mori has always transformed herself effortlessly and faster than anyone else into the future. Japan Society Gallery presents her latest countenance in this major solo exhibition, Rebirth, as a significant artistic statement by Mori. The entire gallery space is transformed into Mori's world through 35 sculptures, drawings, photographs, sound and video works, strung together into a narrative of birth, death and rebirth—a continuous circle of life force that the artist observes on a cosmic scale. Journey through space, time and consciousness in this immersive installation.
