Peter Granser & Kashiwagi Mari— "The Red-Crowned Crane & The End of the World"
Feb. 6th, 7pm – 10pm, 2025
Humans are destroying nature, but simultaneously the committed actions of a few individuals can save a species and perhaps even an entire ecosystem: ‘The Red-Crowned Crane & The End of the World’ by Peter Granser was created in Hokkaido in 2020 and addresses the complex relationship between humans and nature. The linen-covered Leporello shows abstract images of cranes inspired by Japanese mural painting. These are juxtaposed with a series of dramatically rising clouds of vapour from a volcano at the ‘end of the world’: A symbol of the power of nature as the beginning and end of all life. A thin Leoprello sheet is inserted in the book, on which poems by Mari Kashiwagi are printed in Japanese and English.
