Edition Nord is launching a series of publications called \u201cpara\/log\u201d, presenting an aspect of an exhibition and\/or the attitude of an artist through the form of flexible and conceptual artist\u2019s books, unlike heavy and comprehensive \u2018catalogues\u2019. The first publication is Yuki Okumura\u2019s \u201cYUKI OKUMURA\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u2013<\/p>\n
Yuki Okumura is a Japanese artist based in Brussels and Maastricht. \u201cYUKI OKUMURA\u201d is a concept book for his latest project, in which he mixes Gordon Matta-Clark and himself. The contents and the design of the book precisely follow a Matta-Clark catalogue published by ICC, Antwerp, 1977.<\/p>\n
\u2013<\/p>\n
\u201dThrough the auspices of Flor Bex, the former I.C.C. and MuHKA director, and with little-to-no municipal objection, Okumura has nearly finished a major film work in Brussels entitled Welcome Back, Gordon Matta-Clark. The project is nearing completion this summer in conjunction with an exhibition at MISAKO & ROSEN just in front of the streetcar in Minami-Otsuka. It consists of an elaborate series of holes and slices worked out in an almost musical score where a fixed set of elements played their way up and down throughout the layers. A terrific sense of disorientation in walking through multiple times is created by an unnerving elimination of death and from perspectives not normally visable in a living\u201d. \u2013\u2013\u2013 From the press release of his solo show \u201cYuki Okumura\u201d, Misako & Rosen, Tokyo, 2017<\/p>\n
