          ARAKI TAKAKO

          Est: CHF2,000 - CHF3,000

          ARAKI TAKAKO (Nishinomiya City 1921 - 2004) Stone Bible. Ceramic with screenprint. 15.5 x 21 x 16 cm. Provenance: Former Galerie Maya Behn, Zurich. The Japanese artist Araki Takako is known internationally for her ceramic “Bible” series. She creates clay copies of the book of books, the Bible, by inscribing delicate layers of clay using the silk screen process. Her books are often shimmering and fragile, half or completely open, but have reverted to stone, or appear to have become eternalised in a heavy plinth. Also, her bibles are never intact, and each one is marked by a fate. “They carry traces of destructive forces, which gently or violently affect the binding, the paper and text, precisely recorded and captured with incomparable care.” (Rudolf Schnyder, curator of the Landesmuseum Zurich) Takako sees the Bible as a symbol of western culture and a vanitas symbol of Christian belief. Araki is an atheist, her father a Zen priest, and her brother a practising Christian. Her works are imbued with doubt, which she sets in opposition to religion, triggered by the suffering of her brother who became ill with tuberculosis. Until the age of 31 Araki Takako followed the family vocation as a florist, until she started her art studies. Thereupon she specialised for one year in sculpture in New York, and finally also in Japan, where she garnered high honours in various national competitions. --------------- ARAKI TAKAKO (Nishinomiya City 1921 - 2004) Stone Bible. Keramik mit Siebdruck. 15,5 x 21 x 16 cm. Provenienz: Ehemals Galerie Maya Behn, Zürich. Die japanische Künstlerin Araki Takako ist für ihre aus Keramik bestehenden „Bible“-Serien international bekannt. Sie kreiert aus Ton Abbilder des Buches der Bücher, der Bibel, indem sie sehr filigrane Tonschichten mit Siebdruckverfahren beschriftet. Ihre Bücher sind oft flatternd und verletzlich, zur Hälfte oder komplett aufgeschlagen, jedoch verfliessen diese in Form eines Steines oder scheinen in schwere Sockel verewigt zu sein. Auch sind ihre Bibeln nie unversehrt, jede einzelne ist durch ein Schicksal gezeichnet. „Sie hat Spuren von zerstörerischen Kräften, die sanft oder gewalttätig auf Einband, Papier und Schrift einwirkten, genau registriert und mit unvergleichlicher Sorgfalt festgehalten.“ (Rudolf Schnyder, Kurator des Landesmuseums Zürich) Takako sieht die Bibel als Symbol der westlichen Kultur und als Symbol der Vanitas des christlichen Glaubens. Araki ist Atheist, ihr Vater ein Zen Priester und ihr Bruder ein gläubiger Christ. Ihre Werke sind geprägt durch die Zweifel, welche sie der Religion gegenüber trägt, ausgelöst, durch das Leiden ihres Bruders, der an Tuberkulose erkrankt ist. Bis zu ihrem 31. Lebensjahr folgt Araki Takako der Berufung ihrer Familie als Floristin, bis sie ihr Kunststudium beginnt. Daraufhin spezialisiert sie sich während eines New York Aufenthaltes auf Bildhauerei. In Japan nimmt sie an verschiedenen nationalen Wettbewerben teil und erhält hohe Preisauszeichnungen.
