Yaribi Museum in Tama Art University

I went to see the Yaribi museum today, after my class at Tama Art University. Yaribi is a little wooden hut constructed illegally on the roof of the painting department of Tama University by a number of students. They organise exhibitions in it. The link above takes you to their blog page (in Japanese), but you can see pictures of the current show as well as construction photos. One of my students is involved, and we spent some time chatting in the museum. The structure will stay on the roof for a while, and has the support of a number of professors. I suggested they perhaps involve curating and critical studies students as well as artists, to try create a broader public platform. Anyway, it is wonderful to see such initiatives in the normally rather quiet and reserved spaces of art schools.
