26 Execution
ORIMOTO Tatsumi
Project 1- Busan Museum of Art
Japan’s representative performance artist of today, Orimoto Tatsumi, came across the lingering image of Fluxus, the happenings in New York, and became influenced by them while staying in New York for a long stretch of time, 1971. His work, Execution, will be projected onto a screen which happened in 1579. In this work, the same number of guillotines were used to execute 26 Christian martyrs subject to crucifixion in Nagasaki according to Toyatomi Hideyoshi’s orders in Japan, this device was used around the world Today the baguette, a French bread which has become a part of our life, used to be a political symbol representing the body of Christ in Christian churches. Though it was new to East Asia, after the area of exploration and a bloody history surrounding colonial propaganda and ruthless suppression it has come to have the meaning it does today. He is asking this question once again.
