LEMONISM x CUBISM | DADAISM | MINIMALISM | *SYMBOLISM & ACTIONISM | JAPONISM | 2017
“Performances & video installations”

In “ No.01 Gliding Soul” – one of the actions associated with the 72 lemons – Akemi Takeya creates a link between Lemonism and Symbolism, focussing on a specific body part: the top of the head. While Impressionism chose its way from the outside to the inside – an artistic transfer of reality into painted form, the world transferred into the strokes of a brush –, Symbolism followed a different path, turning to the often neglected meanings of those worlds that lie beyond perceptible reality: ecstasy, dream, darkness and the unknown, mystery and metaphor. These spheres from the inside of the mind are being externalised, being transferred to the outside world through art. Akemi Takeya creates a fantastic game out of this radical concept, obeying only the rules of chance and unpredictability. For this purpose, Akemi Takeya, together with Armin Anders, created 72 actions – text-sheets to be used as “playing cards”, as means of transfer for possible and impossible ideas. – BY Jürgen Bauer
