(1) Out Of Tokyo
===============================================================

Vol. 103: Promoting Japanese Culture in the World
by Ozaki Tetsuya

As anticipated (see the previous installment of this column) and
now reported in the media, Isozaki Arata has quit his post as
the director of the 2005 Yokohama Triennale, and artist Kawamata
Tadashi has taken over the helm. What a confusion... But maybe
it's a favourable turn of events, as Kawamata seems to be working
on it eagerly, and his statement raises our hopes: "My intention
is to put together a Yokohama 2005 that is quite unlike any other
international exhibition the world has seen."

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

Koolhaus of Jazz

December is the month when you hear Christmas songs just about
everywhere you go. What you usually don't hear are excellent
jazz interpretations, and some of these are really good. The one
I recommend most is Naruyoshi Kikuchi Quintet Live Dub's "The
Christmas Song". To write about it before seeing the live
performance seems a bit unsophisticated, but the anticipated
duet of Kahimi Karie and Kikuchi Naruyoshi just sounds
irresistible. The rest of the lineup including DJ Krush, Vincent
Atmicus and especially Sigh Boat featuring Uchida Yayako, Suzuki
Masato and Watanabe Takuma is equally attractive. Merry Christmas!
