00:00If I lose my current speed, I'll retire.
00:04It's no fun.
00:07Ando Tadao is a Japanese architect.
00:11He was born and raised in Osaka.
00:15He always surprises people with innovative ideas.
00:19He is still making his name known from Osaka to the world.
00:25His life span is 100 years.
00:27He lives his youth like an unripe apple.
00:30Mr. Ando, who has a life of his own,
00:32talks to the top of the world.
00:35This is Ando Tadao's youth talk.
00:39Today's guest is a photographer and film director,
00:43Mikasa Minagawa.
00:46I'm so excited to be an architect.
00:52I'm so excited.
00:56I feel like I've seen a great movie.
00:59Mr. Ando and his friends will talk to each other
01:02and send an email to you, who lives a life span of 100 years.
01:23Today's guest is a photographer and film director,
01:27Mikasa Minagawa.
01:29She is an artist with many talents,
01:32including art, design, and other activities.
01:38I know my father well.
01:41He passed away in 2016.
01:45Before that,
01:47I don't know why I'm here today.
01:52Three of us got the Literature Award together.
01:58In 1997,
02:02we built a house in Awajishima.
02:06Mr. Minagawa and I decided to have a talk.
02:12We had a talk,
02:15and I wondered why my father had passed away.
02:19I still have a long way to go.
02:23I'd like to ask you, Mr. Ando,
02:26why you continue to build your house so energetically.
02:32I think it's because of your father.
02:36He was always looking forward.
02:39My father was like a young boy.
02:45Do you often feel the same way?
02:49I often went to see his plays in Osaka.
02:58The most memorable scene for me was
03:04the scene in which he sang to us.
03:13Mr. Minagawa is always moving,
03:17and he always has someone to talk to.
03:20It's difficult.
03:22He's a young boy.
03:25I'm looking at your photos now,
03:32and I think it's natural.
03:34It's different every time.
03:36I think it's amazing.
03:40I wonder where it comes from.
03:50Kyoto Art Museum is quite big.
03:54It's surprisingly big.
03:56I think it's amazing that you can have a conversation
04:02without being overwhelmed by the big museum.
04:08I'm very nervous now.
04:11I love Mr. Ando's architecture.
04:14I've been to see some of his works.
04:18I've heard a lot about him from my father.
04:21I've been wanting to go there for about three years.
04:24It's a dramatic space.
04:27Mr. Ando's architecture is so different from
04:31what I saw before and after I came here.
04:34It's so different.
04:36I feel like my life has changed.
04:41I was raised in a theater family,
04:44but I feel like I'm in a theater.
04:47I really love it.
04:50It's different from architecture.
04:54Hisachigichi Maezu is alive.
04:59I think he's telling us to look at what's beyond the picture.
05:06I think we should look at these pictures
05:10and think more carefully.
05:15What I'm taking isn't something special.
05:21I think it's an angle that cuts through the world.
05:26As Mr. Maezu said,
05:29I value the beauty that lies behind beauty.
05:33I value light and shadow.
05:37I think it's my job to pick up the beauty
05:40that lies beyond the beauty.
05:43But I think the world is interesting
05:46because there is a sense of justice behind it.
05:49I think it's interesting.
05:52I believe that there is beauty
05:55wherever you look.
05:58That's why I take pictures every day.
06:01The amount of passion I have for photography
06:04is increasing day by day.
06:07I'm taking a lot of pictures.
06:10I can't get enough of them.
06:13When I think about the beautiful things
06:16happening here and there,
06:19I get nervous.
06:21This is a world that transcends
06:24everyday life.
06:27People who make interesting things
06:30try to make things they've never seen before.
06:34But I think we should look at
06:37what's beyond the everyday world.
06:40I think young people should take
06:43one step forward
06:46when they look at this world.
06:51The Future of Photography
06:56What do you find most interesting
06:59about your work?
07:02I don't think it's anything.
07:05In the architecture office,
07:08you're in charge of the economy.
07:11You're in charge of the conversation with people.
07:14I'm in charge of about five magazines
07:17a day, including this morning.
07:20I'm in charge of about ten of them.
07:23I tell them what to do with the cover.
07:26You're in charge of every detail.
07:29I tell them what to do with the cover.
07:32I tell them to make it brighter.
07:35They say,
07:36I can't make it brighter.
07:39I tell them,
07:42I'm taking a day off tomorrow.
07:45I tell them,
07:48I'm going to make it brighter.
07:51I'm going to make it brighter.
07:54You should take a picture
07:57of the moment.
08:00It's amazing to put your life
08:03into the moment.
08:06The moment is art.
08:09It's not a pile of paper.
08:12It's not a pile of paper.
08:15I can see 360 degrees with my eyes.
08:20It's totally different from my daily life.
08:22When something comes in through my pores,
08:25I can get something good.
08:27As you said, I put my life into that moment.
08:31I've been living that moment forever.
08:35I need energy, too.
08:38When I look at Mr. Ando,
08:40I get a lot of energy that I have to work harder.
08:43We want to create a space that people have never seen before.
08:48Mr. Yumika wants to create a photo that people have never seen before.
08:54But architecture is so exciting.
08:59It's really exciting.
09:03It's like watching a great movie.
09:06It's like watching a very energetic play.
09:09When I look at Mr. Ando's architecture,
09:12I feel like my life is changing.
09:20You know, this photo technology
09:23is going all over the world on time.
09:26It's not just going online.
09:32People can see it instantly.
09:35It's amazing.
09:37They wonder where this photo is.
09:40There are 85 of them now.
09:43They can see all of them.
09:46They can see India, Sri Lanka, and Malaysia.
09:51They can see all of them.
09:53It's going all over the world instantly.
09:57It's terrifying.
10:00There are people from India.
10:04There are people from China.
10:07I want to appeal to people.
10:10I want to appeal to people with my sensibility.
10:14It's a tough job.
10:17I want to appeal to people with my sensibility.
10:20I want to appeal to people with my sensibility.
10:26I think art is important
10:29for people with high sensibilities
10:33all over the world.
