The traumas of nuclear warfare, from 1945 to the end of the Cold War, are not merely calamities of the past. They still have contemporary consequences, contaminating the health, lives and memories of the many nuclearized cultures in Japan, Oceania and other places. The author argues that looking at past and present artworks representing the nuclear age helps us to understand nuclear nations’ biopower and its lasting effects.

Cet article analyse quelques plis et faux plis radioactifs à travers des œuvres artistiques phares de l’ère atomique. On comprendra les applications positives et les accidents et agressions de l’ère atomique comme des « plis » et « faux plis ». L’article se concentre en particulier sur le nucléaire militaire et sur les œuvres d’art des victimes de « la » bombe et des centaines de bombes testées dans le Pacifique pendant la guerre froide. Cette analyse mènera, entre autres, en France et aux États‑Unis, du temps de la recherche des Curie, jusqu’au Japon, en Océanie et même en Afrique, de l’après‑guerre à nos jours. Mais à travers cette étude, c’est surtout l’entremêlement ontologique des arts et de la science qui sera mis en évidence, l’impossibilité de les démêler ou déplier entièrement.

This paper addresses the following observation: in Japan, in the East, as much as in the West, there is one same divide, the one separating art from science – or more broadly – separating the humanities from the modern sciences. My argument is, on the one hand, that to analyze this divide constitutes one way of solving some of the challenges of the 21st century - one of which relating to national identities. On the other hand, and most importantly, I wish to demonstrate that, in spite of the divide, the two disciplines, as much as the East and the West, have more in common than commonly assumed and that this divide, even if profound, is not so radical.

Invisible Colors: The Arts of the Atomic Age How art makes visible what had been invisible—the effects of radiation, the lives of atomic bomb survivors, and the politics of the atomic age. The effects of radiation are invisible, but art can make it and its effects visible. Artwork created in response to the events of the nuclear era allow us to see them in a different way. In Invisible Colors, Gabrielle Decamous explores the atomic age from the perspective of the arts, investigating atomic-related art inspired by the work of Marie Curie, the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the disaster at Fukushima, and other episodes in nuclear history. Decamous looks at the “Radium Literature” based on the work and life of Marie Curie; “A-Bomb literature” by Hibakusha (bomb survivor) artists from Nagasaki and Hiroshima; responses to the bombings by Western artists and writers; art from the irradiated landscapes of the Cold War—nuclear test sites and uranium mines, mainly in the Pacific and some African nations; and nuclear accidents in Fukushima, Chernobyl, and Three Mile Island. She finds that the artistic voices of the East are often drowned out by those of the West. Hibakusha art and Japanese photographs of the bombing are little known in the West and were censored; poetry from the Marshall Islands and Moruroa is also largely unknown; Western theatrical and cinematic works focus on heroic scientists, military men, and the atomic mushroom cloud rather than the aftermath of the bombings. Emphasizing art by artists who were present at these nuclear events—the “global Hibakusha”—rather than those reacting at a distance, Decamous puts Eastern and Western art in dialogue, analyzing the aesthetics and the ethics of nuclear representation.

From October 6, 2018, to January 20, 2019, the exhibition Catastrophe and the Power of Art was on view at the Mori Art Museum in Tokyo. The exhibition, curated by Kondo Kenichi, was notable for the choice of topic and the display of relevant pieces created by international artists. Moreover, it coincided with the fifteenth anniversary of the museum. Museum director Nanjo Fumio explained that while the tenth anniversary was dedicated to universal themes such as “happiness” and “love,” catastrophe became central for the fifteenth anniversary “given the disasters and tragedies that seem to be a constant presence today.”

The Summit was the inaugural event of a five-year national flagship program, Art Platform Japan, initiated by the Agency for Cultural Affairs (Bunka-cho) and implemented by the National Art Center, Tokyo. The aim of the program is to further the production, dissemination, and reception of Japanese contemporary art in a global context, and to promote the introduction of global trends in contemporary art to broad audiences both within and beyond Japan. Bringing together leading practitioners in the field of contemporary art for a three-day workshop in Tokyo, the Summit addressed themes that are of pressing concern in Japan, but also resonate with conversations happening abroad.

The international fellowship allowed me to work in the curatorial departments of the Guggenheim Museums in New York, Bilbao and Venice.

Abstract for the symposium:
We are now standing at a crucial moment in history for the call for peace and safety in our ever-changing world. The year 2020 marks the 75th year since the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. Next year, 2021, witnesses the formal implementation of the Nuclear Weapon Ban Treaty, the world’s first international agreement to pursue comprehensively prohibiting nuclear warheads across the globe.

Kyushu University’s International Student Center, together with its supporting organizations, earnestly invites you to join this online symposium. Anyone around the world is warmly welcome.

This symposium will not only discuss the Nagasaki a-bombing as a tragic event of Japan’s past; this special international event will offer you an invaluable opportunity to think about future peace and safety together with other participants across the globe. You will learn from the personal account of a survivor of the Nagasaki a-bombing, engage in a discussion directly with the survivor, and, we hope, commit to actively joining with this symposium’s global participants in the pursuit of global peace and safety in your own lifetime, particularly in these days of uncertainty and instability.

The nuclear age left deeply radioactive wounds that are still detectable today. The Atomic Art session will focus on two parts of the world: Polynesia and the Navajo Nation. The impact of French nuclear tests in Polynesia continues to this day, and the same can be said of uranium mining for the Manhattan Project in the US. These lands, the life and memory of the people connected to them, are still radioactive. Two speakers will examine the ways some contemporary artists engage with and represent these nuclear wounds. 核時代は、今日においても未だにはっきりと確認できるほどの深い傷跡—放射能に起因するもの—を残しました。本セッションは、ポリネシアとナバホネイションという２つの地域に注目します。フランスによる核実験、およびアメリカのマンハッタン・プロジェクトによるウラン採掘がポリネシアに与えた影響は今日に至っても続いています。そこに住む人々の生や記憶と結びついたこれらの土地は、今日に至っても放射能の影響下にあります。本セッションでは２名の講演者をお招きし、これらの土地を巡る「核の傷」が、現代芸術において如何に表象されているかについてのお話を伺います。

Speakers: Anaïs Maurer(Assistant Professor of French and Comparative Literature at Rutgers University, and Faculty Associate at Columbia University’s Center for Nuclear Studies) and Shawn Skabelund (Artist, Arizona)

サイエンスサロンは、「総合知で社会変革を牽引する」研究に取り組まれている先生方をお招きし、研究分野の枠を超えて、新たな知見を切り開いているお話をサイエンスコミュニケーターがカジュアルな雰囲気で伺います。
今回のゲストは、フランス生まれ、イギリスやアメリカでの研究を経て日本に拠点を移した言語文化研究院のガブリエル・デカマス准教授。「原子力アート」、芸術の視点から原子力の時代を見つめ直しています。
原子力発電の燃料や核兵器の原料となるウランの採掘は、どのように人間的・環境的影響を及ぼしましたか？原爆は、日本と西洋でどのように表象されてきましたか？そして戦後80年を迎えた今、原子力アートは私たちに何を問いかけていますか？是非一緒に考えてみましょう！
