 空山基|Hajime Sorayama 


空山基(1947年出生于日本爱媛县高松市)于1969年毕业于Chubi中央艺术学院,后进入广告公司工作。1972年,他开始自由创作生涯,极具特点的超现实表现手法奠定其享誉日本国内外的传奇艺术家地位。空山基的作品体现了他对人体和机器之美的极致追求,为他在国际艺坛赢得了极高的声誉,最具代表性的“机械姬”系列(1978至今)收获全球瞩目和青睐。1999年,空山基凭借索尼AIBO机器狗的概念设计荣获日本经济产业省颁发的最佳设计奖和日本文化厅媒体艺术祭大奖。2001年,第一代“AIBO”被美国史密森学会和纽约MoMA永久收藏。同年,空山基与摇滚乐队Aerosmith合作,乐队专辑《Just Push Play》以空山基的作品为封面。

空山基近年个展包括:《离经叛道》(犹太博物馆,纽约,2015);《欲》(Larry Gagosian、Jeffery Deitch策划,摩尔大厦,迈阿密,2016);《宇宙与艺术展》(森美术馆,东京,2016;艺术科学博物馆,新加坡,2017)等。他曾参与大型群展《酷日本》(热带博物馆,阿姆斯特丹,2018;河畔博物馆,安特卫普,2019)。

HOW Art Museum is pleased to present Metropolis, solo exhibition by renowned Japanese artist Hajime Sorayama, from June 18, 2021.

Hajime Sorayama’s work has exerted a wide and profound influence on fields such as advertising, design, film, street art and contemporary art since the 1970s. His ingenious use of airbrush has led to the creation of a series of metallic robots, revealing not only the artist’s aesthetic vision but also his insightful investigation into contemporary issues such as the boundaries of race, eternity of life and the complexity of technology and artificial intelligence.

Sorayama's extensive oeuvre that centers upon an on-going pursuit for beauty regarding the human body and the machine has continued to receive high international acclaim, and his signature body of work entitled, the "Sexy Robot" series (1978-) had served to established his world-wide reputation. In 1999, he won the Good Design Award (Ministry of Trade and Industry) and the Media Arts Festival Grand Prize (Agency of Cultural Affairs) for his work with Sony on the concept design for their entertainment robot 'AIBO.' In 2001 the first generation 'AIBO' was added to the permanent collections of the Smithsonian Institute and the Museum of Modern Art (MOMA), Sorayama is also renown for his collaboration with internationally famous rock band Aerosmith for the artwork on the cover of their 2001 album, “Just Push Play”.
