Art is on the rise in Japan and around the world. This may be because artists' unique perspectives give new value to a world that has become homogenized and saturated, and offer a future.
Under these circumstances, another notable gallery, "Rollwill be born in Iidabashi.
This new gallery was established by Yosuke Fujiki, who originally worked as a curator at "B Gallery," a gallery operated by BEAMS, and will launch with Ryo Owada's photography exhibition "Declaration under Journal," which will start on July 22.
This exhibition will be held in conjunction with the publication of the photo book of the same name, "Journal under Declaration," which is a compilation of photographs taken between April 7 and May 25, 2020, when the first state of emergency was declared by the Corona Vortex, as well as a diary of daily records. Selected works from the photographs in the book will be on display and for sale.
In addition, at the venue, the photo books that have been published by Kesa Publishing, a publishing company launched in 2018 by Mr. Owada, Ms. Fujiki, and designer Naoya Yoshida, as well as Mr. Owada's past representative works will be gathered together and events will also be held. Why not confront those days, which you can face only now that a little time has passed?
