Contemporary art curator Rin Kanazawa highlights exhibitions addressing themes of femininity, the body, and societal issues.Summary
Contemporary art curator Rin Kanazawa highlights exhibitions for 2025 that bring previously unheard voices to consciousness. These include a three-person show by Yoshiko Shimada, Reira Yamamoto, and Namae Myoji that illuminated the politics and body behind mythologized femininity, and Ai Hasegawa's work questioning artificial gestation. The exhibition "For the Placard" at the National Museum of Art, Osaka, featured works by Mitsuko Tabe, exploring different forms of family and humanity. Kanazawa also noted the "Anti-Action" exhibition, which revived the activities of overlooked female artists. Furthermore, Kanazawa reflects on their own curated exhibition, "Practice of Restoration," which addressed "invisible disabilities," reaffirming that contemporary art can serve as a circuit for quietly confronting private and social difficulties and imagining the experiences of others.
