Tokachi International contemporary Art Exhibition
****************************************************
In the summer of 2002 in Obihiro City, the first large contemporary art
exhibition in Hokkaido/Japan, Demeter, will take place, with Serizawa
Takashi, Director of P3 art and environment, as the General Director.
There will be ten artists or artist groups, each exhibiting on scales
larger than their solo exhibitions that took place in the P3 art and
environment gallery.


<Participating Artists>
Cai Guo Qiang, Kim Sooja, Tadashi Kawamata, Casagrande & Rintala, Ingo
Gunther, Winter & Hoerbelt, Shigeaki Iwai, Yoko Ono, Cine Nomad, Masato
Nakamura, and others.

<Exhibition Period>
July 13, 2002 - September 23, 2002

<Exhibition Contents>
Artists who have visited Tokachi to learn the characteristics of the place
will create site-oriented installations.  Many exhibition planshave already
been proposed, including works that are interactive, refreshing,
comforting, kitschy, and many others that all have high merit.

The main part of the exhibition will take place in a forty-three hectare
racehorse track.  There will be many exhibitions in the stables along the
sides of the track.  The audience can walk through the individual
exhibition spaces and relax in the caf・瘢雹 which itself is a work of art.
They can bask in the rest spaces underneath trees, looking up at the sky.
We plan to create a comfortable site where visitors can enjoy the day, just
like being out on a picnic.

Ban-ei horse racing in Obihiro usually takes place in the winter, but there
may be a special "Demeter Championship". Don't miss it!

We look forward to seeing you in Tokachi this summer!  For more details,
