artist
statement
I create "a warehouse of memories" recorded in various media using 10
video projectors, FM radio waves and daily objects. Visitors can take a
part of memories
to home. Please bring a portable FM radio you have. ()
- Old photographs sometimes impress us when seeing them
- It could do because you find the common thing with those photographs.
This project is composed of installation works about The Miyamoto
Family and their stories.
I interweave my film, photographs and sound are interwoven with the
home movies and the family albums recorded by my late grandfather
Toshikazu into a work of art. In those records, both of us
capture the people close to ourselves and landscapes around our
house. That is to say, the memories of the family are recorded.
_ For instance, face. voice, and body of the self, lifestyle, memories
in childhood. expectation to the future
_ you might realize something taken for granted, but something
important through our work.
MIYAMOTO
HIROSHI
Born on 14 January 1978. He was working as a cinema
projectionist, and as an assistant of the film director Atsuhito
Yamashita when he went to film school. After graduating, he had
been an adult video director. He does not stick to one particular
media for his works using video, sound and photography to expand the
range of his representation.
He's a member of AHA! project(Archive for Human Activities).

remember 3rd Monday is a presentation that takes place on the 3rd
Monday of every month. The presentations at remo are open from 19:00 to
21:00 to visitors and anyone who would like to present their works for
free. Works should be submitted 10 days before the 3rd Monday of the
month. Submitted works are informed before remember 3rd monday

also serves as a platform for discussion with viewers and creators
after the screening.
Also, we set up the new programme "remoscope", whose works are along
with the Lumiere rules. (please see the rules below)
*[remoscope]
There might be a new discovery in places you casually pass by, and
scenes you tend to miss by clipping out moving image. In this workshop,
we call for submissions of video works in accordance with The Lumiere
Rule, 6 possible techniques in 1895 when the Lumiere brothers invented
Cinematograph from the public. In addition to the screening of
submitted works, we have a discussion on reconsidering the role, the
potentials of moving image as a medium lying in everyday life and the
grammar of moving image.
remo encourages works that do not belong to a conventional medium such
as cinema and TV, and provides spaces for showing and viewing such
works, Our aim is for such works of individual expression to act as a
catalyst to provoke an interaction between makers and audience that
will transcend the barriers of that relationship.

SUZUKI Atsushi
「so what? 001-300」and「8 landscapes of Osaka」
dates
Friday, 1 june to Sunday, 24 June 15:00-21:00
(open: Thursdays to Sundays)
about
Atsushi Suzuki, living in Kitakyushu, Fukuoka presents the video series
entitled "so what?" including 300 short pieces, as well as his new
works“8 Landscapes of Osaka”. The "so what?" video series consists
of simple short pieces Suzuki captures from ordinary landscapes and
scenes in daily life. These seemingly casual video works are filled
with humour, comicality, melancholy, loneliness and beauty hidden in
human behavior and nature Suzuki pursues. Suzuki's worldview will give
us the opportunity to rediscover the world and to have diverse
viewpoints through “so what?” series. We strongly recommend people who
are not so keen on video art. Once you see, you cannot take eyes off
Suzuki's worldview represented in his humane works!

■■ artist
pick up: Ayako Yoshimura / palla (Kazuhiko Kawahara)
Cityscape from photography to moving images
dates
friday, 12 january to sunday, 18 february [open: thu-sun] 15:00-21:00
contents
remo featured Canadian, Australian video artists in the past artist
pick up
programmes. The last programme is 2 Japanese artists- Ayako Yoshimura
and palla (Kazuhiko Kawahara).
Yoshimura is
currently living in Amsterdam NL. In her video work "place
- a city"
hundreds of still images shot from observatories in 6 different cities
[Tokyo,
Yokohama, Shanghai. Sao Paulo, New York, and Chicago] joined together
and presents
one anonymous and homogenized cityscape, which is deleted
particularities;
landmarks, traffic, and signals.
palla, an
award-winner of New Cosmos of Photography, captures the
unstable,
ambiguous zone- "the lost boundaries area" he calls, concealed in urban
cities. You
hardly imagine that only one photograph is manupilated and transformed
into such visionary moving images. It should be noted that his works
are generated from not only by his idea, but also by online comments
left on his website:
www.pallalink.net
Besides, large-scale photographic work is exhibited in the remo space.
Cityscapes on their perspective could be a "contemporaty landscape
paintings" in the mixture of beauty and distortion existing in our
living cities.
