Kirin Plaza “Twilight Hour” (Tadanori Yokoo Exhibition)

Video ID number: V00691
Recording date: 20 January 1991

Overview

At the "Tadanori Yokoo Exhibition: Laws of Heaven," Byakko-sha performed a special live performance by their "takeout" butoh group ART BODIC, titled "New Twilight Hour: Encountering Tadanori Yokoo." Byakko-sha members paraded from Dotonbori Bridge, drawing a crowd, while more than 50 people who could not enter the venue watched the performance on a monitor on another floor. Although not an independent work, "Twilight Hour" was a staple of ART BODIC, and many of its movements are incorporated into other pieces. Tadanori Yokoo had a close relationship with Byakko-sha and often visited their rehearsal space whenever he traveled to the Kansai region.
