Work
Cross-Border Review
Publication date: 2013/10/19
A four-year collection of critical essays that offered new perspectives on artistic works.
A novelist reviews an art exhibition; an artist reviews a film. Each month, they choose one work and engage in a critical exchange on the same page of the Nikkei Shimbun.
Over four years, these two creators—each an expressive force in their own field—offered readers fresh perspectives on art and expression.
This collection brings together 48 “jam sessions of words,” in which they explore the frontiers of different artistic genres, probing both their possibilities and their limits.
Also included is the original dialogue Cross-Border Talk, an essential read that surveys the current state of the art world and reconsiders the very nature of criticism itself!
