Yasumasa Morimura Requiem for the XX Century Twilight of the Turbulent Gods
Skira and Fondazione Bevilacqua La Masa, Venice, 2007
Skira and Fondazione Bevilacqua La Masa, Venice, 2007
Requiem for the Twentieth Century shows historical twentieth-century figures, from Che Guevara to Mao Tsedong, from Chaplin's Hitler to Vladimir Lenin, caught in moments of fatigue and distress. Among them we find Yukio Mishima-Morimura's own alter ego-who, at the suicidal cry of "Banzai! Banzai! Banzai! Long Live Art!" expressed the artist's ultimate sacrifice to art.
