SAEBORG “I WAS MADE FOR LOVING YOU”
“I WAS MADE FOR LOVING YOU,” an exhibition by Saeborg, whose performances and installations in latex bodysuits are performed in Japan and abroad, will be held at the Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo from March 30th to July 7th, 2024.
The Tokyo Metropolitan Government and Tokyo Arts and Space established the Tokyo Contemporary Art Award (TCAA) in 2018 as a contemporary art prize to encourage mid-career artists to make new breakthroughs in their work by providing them with several years of continuous support. This is an award exhibition featuring Saeborg, the winners of the fourth TCAA.
The work in this exhibition, building on the foundation of past performances, adopts the perspective of “care” in the context of relationships between people and animals, which have formed a central axis of the artist’s works. By having viewers in the gallery become part of the performance, the distinctive structure of a museum exhibition is utilized to stage an event in which the viewers at times become the viewed.
Also exhibition of Michiko Tsuda, the winners of the fourth TCAA, will be held at the Museum.
