| "European Eyes on Japan/Japan Today vol.6" photographing |
|
| Ongoing since 1999, this photography
project consists in inviting to Japan photographers who are
working in Europe to record for posterity images of the various
prefectures of Japan on the theme of contemporary Japanese people
and how they live their lives. 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.
In 2003,@invitations were extended to four European
photographers, who worked in Sendai city, Nara prefecture &
Wakayama prefecture. Their work will be shown around Japan and
Europe in 2004.
Period for photograph: Jul. - Oct. 2003
