UNTIL 6 JANUARY 2025
LAMPO SCALO FARINI MILAN
THE EXPERIENCE
"Spirit of Japan" is an original Immersive Art Experience inspired by the extraordinary expressive power and modernity of the masters of Japanese prints.
Starting from these marvelous works, Danny Rose Studio has imagined suggestive and poetic visions that invade the space and overwhelm the visitors, creating a dynamic staging, like a journey through different moments, each with its own rhythm and atmosphere.
It is a journey into the Japan of the popular imagination, the world of geisha, samurai and spirits, which finds its source in the Japanese woodblock prints that spread to Europe in the second half of the 19th century, when trade between the West and Japan opened up. This revelation of Japanese art profoundly impacted Western art, influencing not only the Impressionists and avant-garde painters such as Van Gogh, Gauguin, and Bonnard, but also decorative arts, music, and dance.
The Spirit of Japan exhibition is accompanied by a short program: the contemporary creation Mutation and the interactive installation Reflection.
An experiential work of art that immerses visitors in the fascinating process of metamorphosis of matter, the infinite transformation from solid to liquid, then to gas and finally to the mysterious state of plasma. The very structure of the material is transformed into dynamic light sculptures that gracefully oscillate between harmonious order and the abyss of imbalance.
Conceived and created in collaboration with Labex PLAS@PAR, the center of excellence of the Sorbonne University on plasma physics, in partnership with the Center Pompidou in Paris.
Presented for the first time at the Center Pompidou in Paris and at INSIDE Space in Shanghai - winner of the AEAF Gold Award in Sydney.

Ukiyo-e is the Japanese term used to describe the "images"(e) of the prints depicting everyday life and the spectacle of nature, and translates as "images of the floating world",

AN IMMERSIVE ART EXPERIENCE
- MILAN -
A journey through Japanese art
THE EXPERIENCE
"Spirit of Japan" is an immersive art experience inspired by the extraordinary expressive power and modernity of the Japanese print masters.
Starting from these magnificent works, Studio Danny Rose has imagined evocative and poetic visions that invade the space and overwhelm visitors.
The dynamic staging is conceived as a contemplative journey in a Japan that no longer exists but continues to fascinate: the Japan of the common imagination, that of geishas, samurai and spirits, which originates from the Japanese prints that began to circulate in Europe in the second half of the 19th century, when trade between the West and Japan opened up. This spread of Japanese art had a profound impact on Western art, influencing not only the Impressionists and avant-garde painters such as Van Gogh, Gauguin and Bonnard, but also the decorative arts, music and dance.
Music and sound design are an essential part of the exhibition project, the result of meticulous and passionate work that makes visitors' experience even more evocative and immersive. "Spirit of Japan" opened at the Kadokawa Museum in Tokyo, the immersive INSIDE space in Shanghai, is currently on display in Montreal, Canada, and has been seen by more than three million people.
