Key Buddhists Concepts in the Work of Hiroshi Sugimoto
This seminar will discuss the work of the contemporary
artist Hiroshi Sugimoto. My thesis is that not only are key
Buddhist concepts of impermanence, dependent origination and
sunyata (emptiness), embodied in the photographic installations
of Hiroshi Sugimoto, but a Zen meditation-like experience can be
gained through the encounter with the work, and this is an
experience that is built into the work.
Please contact Gabrielle Ewington, Administrator ACAAA on
0428 130 948 should you require any further information.
Kind regards,
AABS Executive
