This publication is produced on the occasion of 'Tokujin Yoshioka: Waterfall,' a major solo exhibition developed by Sherman Contemporary Art Foundation (SCAF), held from October to December 2011. This is the artist's first visit to Australia.
'Waterfall explores the work of endlessly inventive Japanese artist Tokujin Yoshioka. Known for the simplicity and ingenuity of his concepts and holistic approach to design, Tokujin’s interdisciplinary practice has garnered him much attention since founding his eponymous studio in Tokyo in 2000. Tokujin experiments with a sophisticated play of materials and shapes using his art as a means of communicating something fascinating, surprising, joyful and unexpected. SCAF has invited Tokujin to create an extraordinary installation transforming the gallery space and giving Australian audiences a rare opportunity, over three months, to view the work of this influential designer.' — from press release
Preface by Gene Sherman. With list of works and selected biography and bibliography of the artist. Includes an interview with the artist by Dolla S. Merrillees.
