Description:
Departing from the performance of Atsuko Tanaka (1935-2005) while wearing a Japanese kimono is wrapped with a series of coils and tendrils following cable dozens of colorful lights all over the body as well as traditional clothing (titled: Electric Dress) in 1957, the work presented in Takamatsu City Museum of Art is a response to technological developments for human civilization.
Artist who joined the Gutai group (pioneer of performance art / art performance / action art in Japan since 1954 by Jiro Yoshihara, the influence of surrealism in the line of the chest and avant-garde). Development in line with the history of the birth of performance art in the West which is the influence of Futurism to Fluxus period.
Until now, technology has always been an integral part of many artists to respond to it. Not only as an expression critical of the creation of the technology itself as the previous artist, but more towards the expansion of interpretation. This interpretation is expanded to include the technology itself is framed in the decoding process. The words rhyme in poetry verses sung into the computer and digital data until later in the form of a new sound out through the transformation of electronic technology.

In this event will be shown the performers of Soil Comb groups who play with some performance artist (performance artist). This view is to re-energize the performance of Atsuko Tanaka's Gutai group together in the works of those happenings that helped brazing history of anti-art movement of the world through a series of electronic experiments. Tanaka's work will be a fusion or decoding an attractive material when transformed from light to sound, or even vice versa. To be sure the result is a lively debate in pengkaryaan want any contemplation and thought, even.

Concept:
About SISIR TANAH TANAKA itself is a show of Sisir Tanah group and one of the performance artist (Atieq SS Listyowati) in response to the work of Atsuko Tanaka, with her work Electric Dress. What are the underlying, as well as how perceptions, respective interpretations and perspectives as well as before & after from the original artists and the artists who picked up & responding, as well as for the audience or the public.
Electronic itself is very interesting because it is a symbol of the beginning of the progressive movement of human culture through the space of chemistry & physics. Through exposure to visible up to inner space.
The excitement is also the one which gave birth to a new cultural things that bring the pros and cons the good side and bad side of human civilization itself in the end.
This decoding process becomes interesting as a concept. Since man always never be separated from efforts to 'translate' the various things in life. Not just trying to understand another human being and its surroundings, but included in the understanding of himself.
The poetry was born for.

Profile:
Sisir Tanah emerges from the poems in a collection of poems Bagus Dwi Danto which melt in Pandu Hidayat's electronic music. The poems in the collection is an expression that was born spontaneously. The words appear out of nowhere, like molten paint when painting unplanned. A melt it could be an ill-fitting conjunctions, punctuation is not in place, diction, diction or other sudden passing. Sometimes the language altogether without reason. Sometimes no message at all. But also sometimes politically nuanced. Overlap, because in a situation like that is growing and Sisir Tanah is now. The rest was normal, like everyday language in general, which is sometimes full of slogans and appeals.
Sisir or comb or rake the soil is very well-known farmer tooling. Some verses of scripture to translate this word as "destroying the tight sands".
Sisir Tanah can be interpreted as a smoothing floes or dense clumps that have not broken down in order to become 'something' new born to then grow and develop.
