BMW and Art
For over 40 years, BMW has been a proud supporter of the arts at the international level, and is currently involved in over 100 arts-related projects around the world. BMW is primarily interested in modern and contemporary art, but it also provides long-term support of classical music, jazz, architecture, design and other genres. BMW has collabo-rated with – and been loved by – many artists including Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, Olafur Eliasson, Zubin Mehta, Anna Netrebko, and Jeff Koons.

BMW and KYOTOGRAPHIE
In its work with KYOTOGRAPHIE, BMW is keenly aware of its identity as an automobile manufacturer, with interests in innovation, guaranteeing freedom of personal expression, and allowing for the creation of revolutionary new artworks. The fit is a natural one: as an environmental model city, Kyoto shares BMW’s values concerning the promotion of sustainable mobility.

In 2017, the first year of its three-year sponsorship, BMW is supporting Japan’s first postmortem solo exhibition of works by the famous portrait photographer, Arnold Newman.Newman’s portraits of Marilyn Monroe, Picasso, Stravinsky and other famous people are iconic images. Since 1975, BMW has been known for its “Art Cars,” and the artists who produced them. The exhibit, which will be held on the premises of UNESCO World Heritage site Nijo Castle, will include portraits of pop artist Andy Warhol by Arnold Newman and the BMW Art Car created by Warhol transported from Germany, as well as other related images.

BMW i is a BMW sub-brand, and the BMW i3 is the electric version, launched in April 2014, offering “sustainable mobility for urban environ- ments.” BMW i products and services make use of innovative techniques enabling them to realize sustainable mobility through specialized design, development, planning, production and sales. The BMW i3 is an extremely lightweight vehicle, the first mass-produced vehicle to be made using CFRP (carbon-fiber reinforced polymer) for its main body structure, offsetting the extra weight of the battery. This body structure is extremely strong, offering excellent protection for the driver and passengers. The car’s low center of gravity ensures superb vehicle handling and performance.

Ruinart

Ruinart was the world’s first producer of champagne.
Ruinart is known as “Chardonnay House,” because it uses only the best chardonnay grapes harvested from Cote des Blancs and Montagne de Reims. It is renowned for its expertise in creating champagnes that have a fresh, well-rounded, rich flavor, with clarity, finesse and elegance.

At KYOTOGRAPHIE in 2016, Ruinart sponsored the first-ever Japan exhibit of “Light by Erwin Olaf presented by Ruinart,” with photographic works by the world-renowned photographer Erwin Olaf.

At this year’s KYOTOGRAPHIE, Ruinart will present photographs of Giada Ripa, a descendant of the Ruinart founder. The series, entitled “The Yokohama Project 1867-2016,” builds on earlier works by Felice Beato, a photographer who came to Japan in the 1860s, and Mathilde Ruinart, a forebear of Giada’s who knew Beato.

During KYOTOGRAPHIE, visitors to Kyoto will be able to enjoy Ruinart champagne in roughly 100 bars and restaurants throughout the city.

Special supplement to “Asahi Camera” 2017 April issue excerpted from KYOTOGRAPHIE GUIDE BOOK (FUJIFILM collaboration)

FUJIFILM’s motto is that “cameras were created to take photographs.” This year marks the company’s first collaboration with KYOTOGRAPHIE. “I have a sense there is a greater distinction between ‘camera show’ and ‘photography festival’ in Japan than there elsewhere,” says Kunio Aoyama of FUJIFILM’s Marketing Divison / Optical, Electronic Imaging Products Division. “Camera fans are interested in cameras mainly for their mechanics, and as a means for taking pictures. Photography fans are interested in the photographs, the content that results. The truth is, however, the two sides are inseparable, and people should be interested in both. FUJIFILM is now primarily a camera manufacturer, but in the past it produced photograpic materials as well. It developed cameras in the interest of produc- ing better photographic materials.” Looking at the history of FUJIFILM’s product development, we see it has made film and printing paper, black-and-white and color, cameras in all imaginable formats. It has dealt in a wide range of products. As Aoyama says, “The history of photographic expression is a history of materials.”

Exciting the Artists of Today

This year, the TOILETPAPER exhibit will features a photo studio where visi- tors can experience the FUJIFILM GFX 50S for themselves. Several exhibitors, including Yan Kallen, Nobuyoshi Araki and Chikako Yamashiro are showing works and other artists are also offering workshops using FUJIFILM products. “Cameras and printing paper alone may not be enough to produce great works of art, but they are the building blocks. Here we will have the opportunity to see artists of today working with the materials of today. We are happy to see that young artists are inspired by their materials.
