“Avec cette exposition, j’ai sans doute voulu donner une autre définition au mot « art », qui soit moins conventionnelle, moins snob, plus décontractée et accessible à tous.” Beat Takeshi Kitano C’est avec plaisir, humour et sérieux que Beat Takeshi Kitano s’est lancé dans Gosse de peintre, un projet singulier qui s’installe avec finesse et impertinence dans le monde de l’enfance. Inventée de toutes pièces par Beat Takeshi Kitano pour la Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain, l’exposition Gosse de peintre est présentée du 11 mars au 12 septembre 2010. Avec des peintures, des vidéos, mais aussi des objets insolites, des décors, des machines fantasques et sensationnelles, Beat Takeshi Kitano conduit le visiteur de surprise en gag, de jeu en leçon de choses, se moquant de l’art contemporain, s’amusant avec l’histoire et les sciences et se jouant des clichés associés à son pays, le Japon. “With this exhibition, I was attempting to expand the definition of “art,” to make it less conventional, less snobby, more casual and accessible to everyone.” Beat Takeshi Kitano With joy, humor and seriousness, Beat Takeshi Kitano has thrown himself into Gosse de peintre, an unusual project that subtly, if impertinently, alights in the realm of childhood. Entirely created by Beat Takeshi Kitano, this site-specific exhibition for the Fondation Cartier pour ’art contemporain will be presented from March 11 to September 12, 2010. With paintings and videos, bizarre objects and settings, whimsical and fantastic machines, Kitano leads the visitor through surprises, gags and games, all the while mocking contemporary art, experimenting with the sciences and toying with clichés associated with his country, Japan. 261, boulevard Raspail – 75014 Paris, France – Tel: +33 (0)1 42 18 56 50 – fondation.cartier.com
I’m on the run for my life
It’s seems that everything that you said was right
Has come undone, lost my sight
But have you ever thought you’ve done your best
When you were under the gun, that’s right
I know. I’ve seen this place before
But it’s never been so fun
Never been so fun
I’ve been on the run, this shadow weighs a ton
It’s starting to make sense to me
I can’t really make you love me
No, no, you know I can’t really make you love me, no, no
I’ve been on the run, my shadow weighs a ton
I know I found the recipe for me
But I can’t really make you love me
No, no, you know I can’t really make you love me, no, no
You know I’m haunted on overseas
Haunted on each coast
Play them like Ebaneeza
I made them see the ghost
Back from the future donned in Japanese kimonos
Even though the streets show love, try to see me grow
I often see me floatin’, but my shadow it weighs a ton
Call it baggage, I use it all to advantage
But I can’t make you love me
This time it’s on you
And you can’t try to deny, these words when they’re true
I’m on the run
I’ve been on the run, this shadow weighs a ton
It’s starting to make sense to me
I can’t really make you love me
No, no, you know I can’t really make you love me, no, no
I’ve been on the run, my shadow weighs a ton
I know I found the recipe for me
But I can’t really make you love me
No, no, you know I can’t really make you love me
Oh no, ay yo, cud get to steppin’
Your tongue is like a weapon
This is cappin’ from heaven and yet so are ye’s
Since the age of seventeen
I’ve been taking apart microphones
You’ve been taking apart men you’ve blown
With glowing skeleton bones
In the closet, animals strike curious poses
They feel the heat between us
But you need a woman’s glorious style on diamond to fetus
Carry my penis, I’m like the man in the moon
When we kissed then you soon on the run
I’ve been on the run, this shadow weighs a ton
It’s starting to make sense to me
I can’t really make you love me
No, no, you know I can’t really make you love me, no, no
I’ve been on the run, my shadow weighs a ton
I know I found the recipe for me
But I can’t really make you love me
No, no, you know I can’t really make you love me, no, no
I can’t really make you love me
I can’t really make you love me
I can’t really make you love me
I can’t really make you love me
