Yasumasa Morimura: Theater of the Self
The Warhol presents a survey exhibition of work by Japanese artist Yasumasa Morimura. Morimura is renowned for his photographic reprisals of iconic images from art history and popular culture in which he replaces the subjects with his own self-image. By Morimura assuming a place in these works, he reimagines historical narratives and, in the process, mixes issues of originality and reproduction, gender, and race to create what he calls a “beautiful commotion.”
Developed by The Warhol in close collaboration with the artist, the exhibition will focus on three important bodies of work: “Requiem” in which Morimura recreates iconic photographs relating to political and cultural life; the “Actors” series in which he assumes the persona of Hollywood luminaries such as Marilyn Monroe an... - Exposition
Nous Sommes Tous Cannibales - La Maison Rouge
« Nous sommes tous des cannibales. Le moyen le plus simple d’identifier autrui à soi-même, c’est encore de le manger. » Claude Lévi-Strauss,1993

Yasumasa Morimura My Life Through A Looking - Glass
Reflex Art Gallery in Amsterdam presents an exclusive look at the polaroids and working methods of a leading Japanese master.
The work of Yasumasa Morimura exists in a theatrical world between photography and performance. The artist purposely leaps across cultures and eras, overriding issues of gender and race, casting himself in a wide variety of roles. He imitates Madonna, Michael Jackson and other icons of American pop culture as well as slipping into the skin of a stereotypical Japanese matron obsessed with Chanel and Louis Vuitton. His cultural cross-dressing includes the pomp and lushness of the surrealist paintings of Frida Kahlo, and captures the nuances of the nameless heroines in Cindy Sherman's photographs. As the "Daughters of Art History", he reconstructs masterpieces by Rembrandt, Vermeer, Goya and Manet...
