Tadayuki Kiguchi Exhibition @ KAG
Summary
The KAG art space in Kurashiki is holding a retrospective exhibition titled "Tadayuki Kiguchi Exhibition" from January 17 to March 22, 2026, focusing on the work of the director and artist Tadayuki Kiguchi (1975–2017), who was from Kurashiki. The exhibition centers around his representative work, the "Moving-in Project" (搬入プロジェクト), and reviews his activities through various materials. Kiguchi, who led the theater company "Akuma no Shirushi" (悪魔のしるし), passed away in 2017. Since his death, the company has been archiving his work, and they released the copyright for the "Moving-in Project" under CC0, making it an open project anyone can perform. The exhibition showcases his trajectory from childhood experiences to stage works using timelines, photographs, sketches, notes, and video materials, with full involvement from Kiguchi's younger brother, Kazuhiro Kiguchi, in the curation. Near the end of the exhibition, a "Moving-in Project Kurashiki Plan" is scheduled to explore how the project's sense of community and festivity can be inherited in the current local society.
