Taka Ishii Gallery and ShugoArts, both in the Kiyosumi warehouse complex
Taka Ishii closes on Feb. 13; ShugoArts on Feb. 27 Tsuyoshi Tane doesn't like to be known as a "green architect" as his work with the Paris-based Dorell.Ghotmeh.Tane might tempt some to label him. Instead, he prefers to call himself a "social artist," and when he was asked to design an installation for Taka Ishii gallery, he took the opportunity to express the essentials of this design philosophy.
"Sur-impression" is Tane's first solo exhibition in Japan in which his installation "Pasts" is composed of 99 layers of transparent clock prints, each representing an important moment in Tane's life.
