Vu mag numero 2 Japan contemporary photography journal
Pour son 2ème numéro, réalisé dans le cadre de Paris-Photo et qui sortira le jour de son inauguration, VU MAG a choisi pour thème un face à face avec le Japon. Un face à face entre l’Occident, son appétit insatiable pour l’archipel nippon, et le Japon, plus précisément les modèles qu’il nous transmet. Un face à face qui repose, d’abord, sur la dimension initiatique qui détermine tout voyage au Japon (Partie 1 : Là bas) puis se situe dans la perspective de l’expérience et de la sagesse (Partie 2 : Revivre) pour s’achever par une combinaison étrange d’envie et d’inquiétude face à un pays sans cesse happé vers l’éphémèr... - Exposition

Kobe - Ryuji Miyamoto
5:46 am, January 17, 1995. An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.2 originating from a point twenty kilometers below Awajishima Island in southern Hyogo Prefecture struck the city of Kobe and its vicinity. It shook the earth for a mere 15 seconds, enough to kill 5,000 people and destroy more than 100,000 homes and other structures. In the aftermath of the quake, the city caught fire, laying waste to an area of 1,043,000 square meters.
Ryuji Miyamoto's photographs show Kobe as it was just after the earthquake. Both in their overall aspect and in their finer details they give some idea of the magnitude of the force that assailed Kobe's buildings and of the way that whole districts were destroyed. Frozen between their previous state of inactness and their soon to be complete demolition, Miyamoto gives us a look ... - Exposition
Focus Japan
«Focus Japan» is the first of our exhibitions about Japanese Photography this year.
We start with an overview of our collection. Alongside watercoloured Albumines from the 19th century, at that time mainly produced for travellers from the West, we show samples from the sixities and seventies, two important decades for Japanese Photography, as well as some works of the younger generation. Among others are: Rinko Kawauchi, Ruji Miyamoto, Ikko Narahara, Koji Onaka, Toshio Shibata und Issei Suda.
Alongside original prints you will also find a large range of Japanese Photography books. Compared to the US and Europe there are still only few galleries and public institutions in Japan that organise photography exhibitions. Therefore photobooks carry special importance for the reception of photography in Japan.
