All data were assessed for a normal distribution using the Shapiro-Wilk test ( p> 0.05), and the appropriate non-parametric tests were applied when one or more of the corresponding data sets failed to meet the criteria for normal distribution. Area size data were not normally distributed due to participant variance; therefore, a Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used for pairwise comparison. The questionnaire data were not normally distributed; however, we performed a Two-Way repeated-measures ANOVA to analyse the questionnaire data, as there was no non-parametric substitute for this analysis. The results of the Mauchly's sphericity test were not significant ( p> 0.05) for the questionnaire data. Therefore, we did not use the Greenhouse-Geisser corrections. Even the Los Angeles of Blade Runner is awash with Asian imagery, as many visionaries have been imagining the future as multicultural. “Hong Kong is a city of immigrants from everywhere, so there is an element of internationality,” Tajima says. “It’s a blend of cultures. I think Tokyo is becoming a little bit more like Hong Kong.” Corey Andrew Barr was formerly a Specialist and Head of Sales for Phillips, where he also organised exhibitions of contemporary art, photography, and design–working with leading international artists to mount exhibitions in New York and London.

Sales will begin at 10:30 on December 14 (Wednesday) at Ginza Tsutaya Bookstore and the art online marketplace “OIL by Bijutsu Techo”. * Depending on the pre-sale situation, the work may be sold out before the start of the exhibition.

Hungarian-born József Csató will debut at Art Central 2023 with a solo showing by Double Q Gallery (Hong Kong), incorporating a hybrid of Neo-primitivism traits with tongue-and-cheek references to art history and European Christianity in his expressive, geometric paintings.

From his perilous journey to a new country and to his first job as a young journalist in an Urdu daily, Nayar’s account is also the story of India. From his days as a young journalist in Anjam to heading India’s foremost news agency, UNI and from mainstream journalism to starting his now immensely popular syndicated column, ‘Between the Lines’, Nayar has always stood for the freedom of press and journalism of courage. Widely respected for his columns, his autobiography opens on the day Pakistan Resolution was passed in Lahore in 1940 and takes us on a journey through India’s story of a nation working on its foreign policy, development plans, relations with neighbouring countries, and dealing with coalition politics among others. From events of historical and political relevance like Tashkent Declaration and the 1971 war and the liberation of Bangladesh, to interviewing Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and Mujibur Rahman and from meeting Pakistan’s father of nuclear bomb, Dr A.Q. Khan, to his close association with Lal Bahadur Shastri and Jayaprakash Narayan, Nayar’s narrative is a detailed inside view of our nation’s past and present.

In the mirror condition, the participants were seated very near the mirror, so that their bodies almost touched it. They tilted their heads to the left slightly to look into the mirror. The participants' left hands were placed on the same side as the mirror. Their left index fingertips were approximately 30 cm vertically and 30 cm horizontally from the lower right corner of the mirror and 90 cm above the floor. Participants' left hands were fixed during the experiment. In contrast, their right hands were placed in a preferred position on the reverse side of the mirror. They could change the position of their right hands at will at the beginning of every trial. Participants were required to maintain the angles of both wrists. They were instructed to look at the reflection of the left hands in the mirror. After placing their right hands in new positions, the participants pressed the middle button of the foot pedal and started to tap the both hands synchronously at 1 Hz. They were required to tap more than six times. A previous paper reported that it requires at least 6 s visual stimulation to obtain sufficient amount of mirror illusion (Holmes et al., 2004) and six times tapping was almost equivalent to the 6 s stimulation since the tapping was 1 Hz. Therefore, we concluded that more than six times tapping was enough for our participants to observe sufficient amount of mirror illusion. After more than six taps, participants were required to answer two alternative forced choice questions (2AFC) by pressing the right or left button on the foot pedal. The question was, “Do you feel that both hands are in the same position?” When the foot pedal was pressed, participants' responses and the positions of their right hands were recorded, and a beep sound served as a sign to change the position of their right hands for the next trial. This process was repeated for a maximum of 200 trials per condition. Rohde M., Di Luca M., Ernst M. O. (2011).

In addition to a signed collection of works and original works drawn with paper and ink, copperplate prints will also be on sale. Daisuke Tajima was born in 1993 and is an artist from Nara Prefecture. After studying sculpture at a Japanese university and studying abroad in Taiwan, he is developing his activities mainly in Asian countries such as Taiwan and Hong Kong. Influenced by Japanese manga, animation, and movies from the 1990s onwards, such as Naoki Urasawa and Katsuhiro Otomo, he combines his own imagination, which has been honed, with memories of the landscapes he actually experienced in Taiwan and Hong Kong, creating ultra-detailed works. Draw a fictitious city using lines.

The artwork he is currently working on measures 5 meters by 4 meters, a size Tajima considers small, wishing he could go bigger. “If you think about it, cities are much, much bigger than these panels, so I am actually making them small,” he points out.

PDF / EPUB File Name: Beyond_the_Lines__An_Autobiography_-_Kuldip_Nayar.pdf, Beyond_the_Lines__An_Autobiography_-_Kuldip_Nayar.epub This land of millennia-old wooden temples and hundreds of tame bowing deer will sound like a Ghibli-esque fairytale to many, beautiful and unreal, but it’s the ordinary world where Tajima grew up. For him, conversely, the land of fantasy was a concrete maze of skyscrapers reaching for the heavens like those shown in his favorite animated works, namely Akira and Ghost in the Shell. “That was a different world I could not experience,” Tajima explains. “And only when I was a bit older did I realize these urban spaces are real and exist elsewhere.” There are more animals than people here where I live,” artist Daisuke Tajima says when we meet online, attempting to hammer home how remote his studio is in the far reaches of Nara Prefecture. Major solo exhibitions include “Flying Above Forced Isolation” Above Second (Hong Kong) in 2017, “This is My Territory” ex-chamber museum (Tokyo) in 2020, and group exhibitions including “VOCA Exhibition” Ueno Royal Museum (2017).
