The first English-language monograph on the installation artist exploring transnationalism and “wandering as a permanent position”
Artist Yukinori Yanagi (born 1959) focuses on large-scale and site-specific installations that interrogate the politics of institutional borders and boundaries often drawing from systems of signs and symbolic imagery. Investigating the notion of “wandering as a permanent position,” Yanagi uses flags as symbols of nationalism and stability of place as a point of departure. Major works pursue the dissolution of symbolic signs of stasis into organic forms that change with time and circumstance.
Edited by postwar specialist Mika Yoshitake, this publication is the first comprehensive English-language monograph on Yanagi. Presenting eight series of works from throughout the artist’s 35-year career, this project shares newly translated Japanese texts and artist interviews alongside large-scale reproductions and original contributions by scholars Jane Farver, Reiko Tomii, Bert Winther-Tamaki and Yoshitake. This retrospective of Yanagi’s work provides a platform for English readers to engage with his politically and socially engaged practice for the first time.
