Yuki Harada will be speaking at the symposium Revisiting Mokuma Kikuhata Today.
Mokuma Kikuhata is one of the artists Harada respects the most. In particular, his book “Fujita-yo, Nemure”—and especially his reflections on “war paintings”—has had a profound influence on Harada, even as he himself has been writing a series of books on Christian Riese Lassen.
It has already been five years since Mokuma Kikuhata’s passing in 2020. At the time, we were in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, but now, with those days behind us, a memorial gathering will finally be held this year at the Fukuoka Art Museum in his hometown.
Harada will take part in the symposium, which constitutes the first part of this gathering, alongside cultural researcher Hiroki Yamamoto and curator Yozo Yamaguchi, who organized Mokuma Kikuhata’s final retrospective during his lifetime.
