OUTLINE<br />
Artist File 2008 is the first exhibition in a new NACT project. The Artist File exhibition is to be held on an annual basis, with<br />
the aim of introducing current and future trends in contemporary art selected from the NACT’s own distinctive viewpoint.<br />
The exhibition intends to portray the profile of art of our time. Witnessing this lively interchange of various artistic<br />
practices, we have selected the following eight artists for the first turn of this project: Elina Brotherus, Takefumi Ichikawa,<br />
Polixeni Papapetrou, Hiroe Saeki, Hiraki Sawa, Mio Shirai, Masanori Sukenari, and Kei Takemura. Their art takes a variety<br />
of forms, including photography, drawing, vi<strong>de</strong>o and installation, and each artist is in diligent pursuit of his or her own world<br />
as <strong>de</strong>fined by a backdrop of contemporary society, culture and politics.<br />
Presenting those works of contemporary artists, we believe that Artist File 2008: The NACT Annual Show of Contemporary<br />
Art should provi<strong>de</strong> a great opportunity to experience the richness, vitality and potentiality of continuously diversifying artistic<br />
expression of today. As an annual project, we also believe that this series of exhibition will trace out a cross section of our time,<br />
that gradually comes to reveal and reflect the silhouette of an era.<br />
