堀越 千秋

HORIKOSHI Chiaki

Born in Tokyo in 1948, he began living in Spain (Madrid) in 1976 and opened his studio in Kamiizumi in 1995. Since then, he has traveled back and forth between Spain and Kamiizumi.

He has been in contact with flamenco and its cante singers, the Gitanos, and has sung his own songs, intoxicated by the art of flamenco. He drew what he wanted to see with his body, and was surprised and delighted by what appeared.

He created stage designs as if he were playing with young people in Onishi and Kamiizumi. He wrote with a vigor and vigor. He fired bowls with holes in them in an anagama he built in the mountains and called them "national treasures" himself.

In 2014, he was awarded the Order of Civilian Merit of the Encomienda by the Spanish government. In 2016, he returned to Spain and passed away after exhibiting his work at the 3rd Kanna Autumn Art Festival.

1948年、東京生まれ。1976年よりスペイン(マドリード)に住み始め、1995年、神泉にアトリエを構える。以来スペインと行き来する。

フラメンコと、その歌・カンテを歌うヒターノたちと交わり、その芸術に酔い痴れ自ら歌った。自分の見たいものを体で描き、現れたものに驚き喜んでいた。

鬼石・神泉で若者たちと戯れるように舞台美術を制作した。闊達に文章を著した。山に築いた穴窯で穴の開いた茶碗を焼き、自ら「国宝」と呼んだ。

2014年、スペイン国王よりエンコミエンダ文民功労章を受章。これを祝し、「第1回かんな秋のアート祭り」が開催される。2016年、「第3回かんな秋のアート祭り」での展示を最後にスペインに帰国、還らぬ人となる。
