The Japan we have overlooked
Photo Exhibition "European Eyes on Japan/Japan Today vol.6 "
 

Wakayama pref, Sendai city, Nara Pref, Cultural Capital of Europe Lille 2004 & Valenciennes(France), Cultural Capital of Europe Genova 2004(Italy)

In the 6th edition of the series of our photography project started in 1999, with the theme of contemporary Japanese people and how they live their lives, European Photographers photographed in Sendai, Nara, and Wakayama in 2003. Their works will travel to each city of Japan and Europe. We hope that this collection will prove an opportunity for Japanese to reacquaint themselves with aspects of our daily lives that we have tended to overlook and for Europeans to deepen their understanding of Japan and become more familiar with the distant presence of our distant Far Eastern country.
