Atsushi Nishijima received his Bachelor's degree in Musical Technology from
the Osaka University of Art in 1989 and his Master's degree in Media Art in
2001 from the International Academy of Media Arts and Science in Gifu.
Trained in experimental and contemporary music, Nishijima creates sculptures
and installations that emphasize the idea that sound, and thereby music, is
inherent in all objects and environments. A particularly important resource
for the artist is the city as a gigantic synthesizer from which everyday
sounds are selected and transformed into a unique "sound" due to "space".
Nishijima was in residency at Location One from September 2001 through
January 2002. In addition to his solo exhibition Nishijima had two
performances at Location One and participated in the group exhibition Signal
to Noise (Sept. 10-Oct.19, 2002). Nishijima's work has been exhibited and
performed throughout Japan, (solo exhibitions and performances include:
Osaka Contemporary Art Center and Ashiya City Museum of Art & History, Hyogo
1992; Dohjidai Gallery of Art, Kyoto, 1998; "John Cage-Memorial" Gallery
360s, Tokyo, 2002), as well as Singapore, Paris, New York, and Mexico
("Citycircus", New Museum of Contemporary Art, 1994, an exhibition curated
by Laura Trippi, Sala de Arte Publico Siqueiros, Mexico City, 2002). Atsushi
Nishijima has also performed at alternative music venues in New York City,
such as Galapagos Art Space and Tonic.
