Takako Saito (born 1929 in Sabae-Shi, Fukui Prefecture, Japan, since 1978 lives and works mainly in Düsseldorf) has become internationally known for her objects, artist books, performances and actions in the context of Fluxus. She has always been interested in the world of things and everyday life, to which she adds her individual artistic gesture through interventions and small actions. Natural materials such as stones, mussels, onion peels and chestnuts are her preferred materials, alongside various kinds of paper, plastics, foams and wood pieces. She is always looking for new game variants beyond fixed rules. The viewers are involved as co-players and co-designers, since the artist has a penchant for the participation strategy, particularity in her 'Me and You-shops' market stall-like shops where the artist as a saleswoman interacts with the audience. Exhibition: Museum für Gegenwartskunst Siegen, Germany (12.11.2017-02.2018).
