" In search of the juncture of three coincidental sites" is an exhibition catalogue for the Japanese artist's, Miya Kaneko, exhibition at The Container, Tokyo. It is the 15th catalogue in a series published by the gallery to archive and promote artists in Japan and abroad. The catalogue showcases writings by the gallery director, Shai Ohayon, as well as notes by the artist. The publication features works by the artist and explores the connection Kaneko forges between memory and association to cities and sites, using mapping techniques to produce two-dimensional and three-dimensional pieces of work. Miya Kaneko graduated in 2011 from Tama Art University with a bachelor's degree in metal works. She obtained a master's degree in art in 2013, and Ph.D. in 2017 at Tama Art University Graduate School of Art and Design. Her recent exhibitions include Tama Art University Doctoral Program Graduation Exhibition at Tama Art University Museum in Tokyo, 2017; JIGUM exhibition at Art District_p in Busan, South Korea, 2016; and Kaneko Miya: Searching for the Image of Cities at KOMAGOME1-14cas in Tokyo, 2016. She has recently also won the Grand Prize Award of Tokyo Midtown Art and Design Competition (2017), and exhibited last May as part of Roppongi Art Night 2018. She is currently an artist-in-residence at Koganecho, Yokohama. The Container is a contemporary exhibition space in Nakameguro, Tokyo. The space opened in March 2011 to create a site that encourages people to engage with art installations and works, where the emphasis is on curation and the accessibility of contemporary art and ideas to the general public. As the name suggests, the physical space is no more than a constructed shipping container (485x180x177cm), made to measurements of old Japanese shipping containers, housed inside Bross hair salon, in one of Tokyo's most loved and trendy neighbourhoods. The Container invites Japanese and international artists to make site-specifc installations four times a year. Each installation remains on view to the public for two-and-a- half months. Since 2013, The Container also started to publish full-colour, bilingual (Jap/Eng) exhibition catalogues, available online and at the gallery. The space receives extensive international coverage, including ArtAsiaPacific, Artforum, Hyperallergic, Glass Magazine, Art & Antiques Magazine, Dazed & Confused, Blouin Artinfo, Art-iT, Bijutsu-Techo/BT, CNN, NHK, Tokyo Art Beat, The Japan Times, and The Sunday Times, travel guides and in-flight magazines, to mention only a few. ...
