Artist Hiroshi Sugimoto recently expanded his work to include traditional Japanese performing arts such as "bunraku," or puppet theater, through film. Most recently, Sugimoto lent his vision to the arrangement, direction, and stage design of an adaptation of famed bunraku play, "The Love Suicide at Sonezaki (Sonezaki Shinju)", a 1703 work by Chikamatsu Monzaemon. The program begins with a screening of this monumental project, followed by a conversation between the artist and "Phantoms of Asia" guest curator Mami Kataoka.
