Today and Tomorow. All Saints Church, West Dulwich. London. UK. May 2002
An immense sculpture installation by award winning Japanese artist Noriaki
Maeda held in the burnt out ruins of the All saints church in West Dulwich.
Maeda created an incredible piece of work to reflect his views on the manipulation
of space, giving power to the sculpture.He creates a communion between the
old architecture and contemporary abstract sculpture. Stathams work was held
in the crypt, and was a series of 4 small films to accompany a musical soundtrack
of 4 pieces.The music can be described as a "chromatic composition, not
far away from what we call sacred music and sustains a logic of taking a story
which develops into a crescendo with a finale that is unresolved.One piece,"white
rose" was a collaboration with poet Neil Rollinson and a further musical
installation was provided by Italian artist Silvio Wolf.
