76 Department of Photography　MARUI Yoshinori Born in Osaka in 1973. He specializes in photographic production, theory, and the history of photographic expression. His exhibitions include Apparition (solo exhibition, PGI, 2020), Point- flash (solo exhibition, PGI, 2016), Okinawa Prismed 1872-2008 (group show, The National Museum of Modern Art, 2008) among many others. In 2015 he co-founded the society ‘Photography x Philosophy’with the philosopher YOSHIDA Koji. The society explores the photographic and artistic approaches of the 21st century through the communication between different areas of study. He is a member of The Japanese Society for Aesthetics and The Japan Society for Process Studies. According to Jacques RANCIÈRE, particularly in his phi losophy of Le Partage Du Sensible , art can have three natures. The first of these is directly recreating the meaning and significance inherent in a subject, which is shared between the artist and the audience. The second is that of indirectly suggesting a particular meaning and significance through the subject, which is shared between the artist and audience. And the third is of temporari ly inval idating a particular meaning and significance that the audience associates with the subject. Just l ike RANCIÈRE, I indeed feel this third nature of art. It suggests that our judgment when we look at a subject is, in the end, merely temporary sentimental and political judgment that is connected to the various meaning and significance shared in a society. The title of this work, Apparition , is drawn from the final, unfinished thesis by Theodor W ADORNO: Aesthetic Theory . It is clear that ADORNO, who once aspired to become a musician and wrote the Dialectic of Enl ightenment , continued to be interested in art due to the influence of this third nature.
