Vol. 69: The Launch of "ART iT"
by Ozaki Tetsuya

Thinking that it would be nice to have a bilingual art paper these
days, we decided to make one. We call it "ART iT." Neither were
we asked by a huge publishing company to produce such a magazine,
nor are we supported by a generous sponsor. "ART iT" will be
published by the non-profit organization REALCITIES (which operates
also RT), and the editorial staff is more or less identical with
RT's, assisted by some kind helpers. The first issue is (hopefully)
going to hit the streets on friday, October 17, and at the moment
we're bustling about to get it ready. Actually we're bustling about
all the time anyway...

(2) Tokyo Initiator's Diary

Kubota Kenji (curator, Art Tower Mito) Vol. 001

I went to Narita airport early in the morning. The purpose of this
trip is to review the "Yes Yoko Ono" exhibition that's held at the
Samsung Museum of Modern Art, Seoul. Produced by the Japan Society
in New York, this exhibition is travelling the world, and the next
station after Seoul is going to be Art Tower Mito in October. From
Inchong airport I'm going to my hotel first to check in, and from
there I head straight to the museum. I find there approximately
eighty percent of the setup done, so they'll be in time for the
opening three days later. The museum staff look as if they needed
a bit more work to do. Moreover, they did a much better job than
the folks in the United States, where the exhibition had taken
place earlier. Their presentation exactly matched Yoko Ono's delicate
and poetic realm.

(3) Event Pick of the Week
=============================================================

Kathy Returns

Like Charlie's Angels work for Charlie and 007 operates on behalf
of Her Majesty, this fascinating performance unit who cover their
faces with black tights were sent on their mission by an individual
named Kathy. With eccentric movements and fancy costumes, the
three girls look at once venomous and somehow cute, and this time
they come to fulfill their assignment to show a photo/video
installation, and above that a performance on two successive days.
   We also learned that another one of their missions is to help
boost the sale of "Theatre PRODUCTS" items, and for this purpose
they're showing a "sale dance" at Little More Gallery on 8/24.
