Notes
作品解説: 村上は遠くを望んだ景色を描くことがある。ただ単に全体を俯瞰するのを好んだのか、自分が活動している場所を俯瞰的に確認したいのか、あるいは逃避したくなる感情が含まれている可能性もあるが謎である。 夕焼け空に包まれた東京の街なのか、全体が暖かな色彩で統一され、太陽に強く照らされた遠くのビル街が白く霞んでいる。絵具の塊が画面上に散在しているが、よく観察するとメリハリが生まれるようバランスよく配置されているとともに、遠近感や光の震えなどもその塊は表現している。初期の代表作のひとつに数えられるであろう。Artwork description: Murakami sometimes paints views looking out into the distance. It is possible that he simply prefers a bird's-eye view of the entire scene, or that he wants to check the place where he is working from a bird's-eye view, or that he is feeling the need to escape, but this is a mystery. Perhaps it is the city of Tokyo under a sunset sky, or perhaps the entire picture is unified by warm colors, and the distant buildings, strongly illuminated by the sun, are white and hazy. The masses of paint are scattered all over the picture plane, but upon closer inspection, one can see that they are well balanced to create a sense of crispness, and that they also express perspective and the trembling of light. This work is one of the representative works of the artist's early period.
