10月10日から広島市現代美術館にて開催中のコレクション展「コレクション展2026-Ⅱ 美術館の時間_チャプター2:時間の束」に横山奈美が参加しております。

広島市現代美術館は、リニューアル3周年を迎えました。今年度のコレクション展では、「美術館の時間」を年間テーマに、3期にわたり作品と当館の活動をご紹介します。第2回となる本展は、「チャプター2:時間の束」と題しています。

一つの美術作品にも、さまざまな時間が折り重なっています。過去の作品や表現を参照し、それらに応答することで生まれる、異なる時代のつながり。作品が人から人へ、場所から場所へと渡り、保存や修復を経ながら受け継がれていく時間。そして、展覧会や作品の収集を通して積み重ねられてきた、美術館の活動の時間です。本展では、こうした異なる時間が作品やコレクションの中で重なり、結びつくあり方を「時間の束」と捉えます。作品が携えてきた時間と、それらがいまここで結びつくことで生まれる新たな関係に注目します。

展覧会の詳細は広島市現代美術館のウェブサイトをご参照ください。

Nami Yokoyama is participating in the collection exhibition “Collection Exhibition 2026-Ⅱ, The Time of the Museum_Chapter2: Bundles of Time,” currently on view at the Hiroshima City Museum of Contemporary Art since October 10.

Hiroshima City Museum of Contemporary Art marks the third anniversary of its reopening this year. Under the annual theme The Time of the Museum, this year’s collection exhibitions introduce works from the collection alongside the activities of the museum across three chapters. The second chapter, A Bundle of Time, explores the diverse ways in which time is experienced, represented, and accumulated through works in the collection and the museum’s activities.

Even a single artwork can contain many layers of time: connections between different periods that emerge when artists refer and respond to earlier works and forms of expression; the time through which a work passes from person to person and place to place, preserved, restored, and passed on; and the time accumulated through the museum’s own activities, including exhibitions and collecting.
In this exhibition, we consider the ways these different times overlap and come together within artworks and the collection as “bundles of time.” We focus on the time that artworks have carried with them, and on the new relationships that emerge as these times come together here and now. As you move through the exhibition, we hope you will enjoy traveling through the many layers of time.

横山奈美|Nami Yokoyama

横山 奈美(1986年、岐阜生まれ)2012年愛知県立芸術大学大学院美術研究科油画領域修了。同大学で准教授を務める。日常の「見えない存在」に光を当て、精緻な油彩技法で描く作品で知られる。生活の中で消費され捨てられる物を描く《The first object》シリーズや、ネオンをモチーフにガラス管や背後に存在する配電線、フレームまで克明に描く《ネオン》シリーズなど。近年では、出会った人々に書いてもらった筆跡をネオン管で再現し、画面に描く《Shape of Your Words》を制作している。ものを見て描くという行為を通し、人やものに与えられた役割や制度を再考している。

Nami Yokoyama (b. 1986, Gifu) completed her MFA in Oil Painting at Aichi Prefectural University of the Arts in 2012. She currently serves as an Associate Professor at the same university. She is known for works painted with meticulous oil painting techniques to shed light on the “invisible existences” of everyday life. Her practice includes The first object series, which depicts items consumed and discarded in everyday life, and the Neon series, in which she vividly renders neon signs down to the details of glass tubes, wiring, and frames that exist behind them. In recent years, she has been producing Shape of Your Words, a series in which she recreates the handwriting of people she has encountered using neon tubes and translates them onto the canvas. Through the act of observing and painting, she re-examines the roles and systems imposed upon people and objects.
