[Outline of Exhibition]
  • (Small version, 43 words)
    A printout exhibition of "Bitmap-Type Works of Letters" which shows an atomistic world view, and "Object-Type Works of a Line" which shows an ideaistic world view. Also installation of "Counterpoint-Type Works of Colors," which makes the two concepts into chimera.
  • (Medium version, 75 words)
    A printout exhibition of "Bitmap-Type Works of Letters" done by applying Paint CG to a word processor, and "Object-Type Works of a Line" done by arranging Draw CG on a one-dimentional line. The former showing an atomistic world view, and the latter an ideaistic one. Also, as installation, an exhibition of "Counterpoint-Type Works of Colors," which makes the two opposite concepts into chimera on the time-axis, showing a polyphonic world.
  • (Big version, 163 word)
    The first real exhibition of Hideki Nakazawa as an artist, who is the inventor of a 3D tool "Digital Nendo," floppy-work creator, and multimedia/contemporary art critic. All exhibited are new works which can be divided into three categories: (1) A printout of "Bitmap-Type Works of Letters" done by applying the concept of Paint CG to a Japanese word processor, showing an atomistic world view which puts priority to colors like Venetian School. (2) A printout of "Object-Type Works of a Single Curved Line" done by arranging the concept of Draw CG on a one-dimentional line, showing an ideaistic world view which puts priority to forms like Florentine School. (3) Installation of "Counterpoint-Type Works of Color-Light" which makes the two opposite concepts into chimera on the time-axis, showing a polyphonic world. And "Polyphonies in two voices" composed by Hideki Nakazawa, which will be its first performance at the opening event, will be suggestive to the whole exhibition.

    --Related activity: Hideki Nakazawa gave a lecture on a exhibition-related story at ATOM Contemporary Art Institute, Meguro-ku, Tokyo, on Saturday, June 21, 1997. The subject of the lecture was "Bitmap and Object ~Atomism and Ideaism in Art~"
