1947年富山県生まれ。1967年に多摩美術大学入学。同年、仲間を募ってパフォーマンス「自己埋葬儀式」を行い、美術家としての活動を開始。1960年代末には学生運動にも参加し、その中から美術の制度性を問い直す運動体「美術家共闘会議(美共闘)」を立ち上げ、その議長としても活動。一方で「今、ここ」での社会と美術の「境界線上」で生成する様々な問題や事象と共鳴しながら、インスタレーションやパフォーマンスとして精力的に展開し、1977年パリビエンナーレ、1984年ベニスビエンナーレなど数多くの国際展にも出品。2002年より多摩美術大学教授に就任。多摩美大が運営するオルタナティブスペース「アキバタマビ21」を創設し、初代プロデューサーを務めた。
Born in 1947 in Takaoka City, Toyama Prefecture, he entered Tama Art University in 1967. In the same year with the assistance of his peers, he staged the performance piece “Self-Burial Ceremony”, with which his career as an artist began. He was also active in the Japanese student demonstrations of the late 1960s, from within which he became one of its' founders and subsequent leader of a movement known as Bijutsuka Kyōtō Kaigi (Artists Joint-Struggle Council) or “Bikyōtō”, which sought to interrogate the institutionalized nature of art. He began zealously developing installation and performances pieces resonating with the many issues and phenomena emerging “on the borderlines” of the society and the art of “here and now”. His works have been shown at numerous international exhibitions, including the 1977 Paris Biennale and the 1984 Venice Biennale. In 2002 he was appointed a professor at Tama Art University. When 3331 Arts Chiyoda was founded, he established the “Akibatamabi21” alternative space managed by Tama Art University and served as its founding producer.
