From DOCLAB:
Hanoi DOCLAB is pleased to present a video screening and talk with Japanese artist Meiro Koizumi. Dislocation and the fetishisation of relationships underlie the work of Koizumi. The artist uses video in a way that documents performances, conversations and constructed scenarios to explore the psychology of urban relationships and modern living.
Meiro Koizumi was born in Gunma in 1976, he currently lives and works in Yokohama, Japan. He studied in London at Chelsea Art and Design School and in Amsterdam at Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten Institute. Selected solo exhibitions include: ‘Broken Hero, Beautiful Afternoon’ Artspace, Sydney, Australia; ‘Total Ecstasy’, Annet Gelink Gallery, Amsterdam, The Netherlands; ‘MAM Project 009: Meiro Koizumi’, Mori Art Museum, Tokyo.
Koizumi will screen and talk about his works and art practice.
Koizumi’s talk is made possible with supports from Japan Foundation and Goethe Institut Hanoi.
Free admission.
