基礎や基盤を意味する インフラ INFRAという名前は、アーティスト、参加者にとっての新しい基盤を意味しています。

Berlin’s 3hd Festival and Tokyo-based EBM(T) Gallery are combining forces to work on インフラ INFRA 2017 in Tokyo, running August 19 to 26.

An ambitious festival of art, music, and thought in the digital age, the program unfolds in museums, galleries, clubs, and online.

The name インフラ INFRA is a play on the abbreviated form of ‘infrastructure,’ and breaks new ground for participants.

Artists

Nobukazu Takemura

Nobukazu Takemura is a Japanese artist and a composer with a child’s sensibility. He’s been active since the early 90s, focusing his activities on order formation and its processes, quests, and spontaneity through play and affect. Takemura has occupied a unique space between post-rock, electronica and modern experimental music, producing albums Child and Magic, Songbook and Zeitraum. He has broadened his creative output from music into video, installation, painting, poetry, and theater from the turn of the millennium.

Green Music

Francesco Cavaliere and Tomoko Sauvage re-interpret the work by the fluxus artist and composer Henning Christiansen. For their installation and performance, the duo plays green sculptures and instruments combining mineral, glass, plants and painted synthesizers.

Nozomu Matsumoto

Nozomu Matsumoto is a sound artist based in Tokyo, co-founder of the sound gallery EBM(T) and co-founder of インフラ INFRA. His work has been presented at galleries such as Yamamoto Gendai and Talion Gallery.
