"The art comes out in the town: Art exhibition in foundry x Symposium in ATLIA" is a cultural business by executive committee sponsoring by SMF Art Wa! of Kawaguchi city, Saitama Prefecture. This aims at providing a chance to think about "Creation" by the double feature of an art exhibition and a symposium. I had a chance to see the art exhibition held at a casting factory, though I missed participating in the symposium (November 28, 2009). The exhibiting artist is a painter, Yuichiro Sato who is an artist energetically announcing masterpieces as seen in the participation of "META II" exhibition and the solo show in gallery 58. He lives and produces works in the Kawaguchi city now though comes from Yamagata. The venue of this exhibition, Shibakawa casting is a factory that was founded 90 years ago and is still fully operated. It is in this factory that three of Sato's existing works have been exhibited. This exhibition shows an effort to have rearranged the metal molds which had casually been placed, and enthusiastically attempted to put the work on them. To be surprised in above all, is that the work harmonized with the air of the place. The smell and the color of the soaking oil provided by the time passage, and Sato’s works which were intentionally produced as deviating from the beautiful screen itself.; the two elements were synchronized and produced a beautiful spectacle. I will report the details in a review with photographs later. However, I want you to visit and experience the exhibition as much as possible.
