Isao Yamada - Invitation to Voyage
DVD with 4 films by the artist and filmmaker Isao Yamada
New
ISAO YMADA started his artistic career by working at Shuji Terayama's theatre company, Tenjousajiki. In 1974, he was appointed as an artistic crew for Terayama's feature-film, "Denen ni Shisu" (Pastoral: To Die in the Country). As a film director, Yamada's release includes "Anmonaito no sasayaki wo kiita" (I’ve heard the ammonite’s murmur:1992), "Jouhatsu Tabinikki" (The Soul Odyssey: 2003) based on the essay by Yoshiharu Tsuge, and "Shutorumu undo Doranku" (Sturm und Drang, 2014). In addition to his work in cinema, Yamada is also known for his work in manga, painting and graphic design. The calligraphic fonts used in his experimental films are all by his own hand writings.

"When walking with Yamada, I sense his toughness as a walker, and he has a unique attentiveness to every object , so when Yamada finds something interesting or beautiful, he stops and looks at it endlessly. But he also switches his attention quickly and suddenly moving to the next, already talking in a different context. This unique tempo, a mixture of concentration and openness to reality and his distinctive behaviour that seems to seek for a world which is quite different from the immediate reality, is intriguing.... You could say that it's all about a journey, but this collection of works might particularly put you in the mood for ‘ yes, it actually is’."
-Higashi Yoichi
