TAB Event - "The Edge 1. Photography" Exhibition

This event has ended.
At Ginza the Edge
Media: Photography, Art Party

This is the first in a series of exhibitions organized by Tokyo based photographer, editor and small press publisher, Alin Huma, on the theme of "the edge." As the exhibitions unfold, each show will in some way relate to the idea of an edge, a margin - in this case the border where stuff can barely stand in a gallery or fall into the "photo-bucket" - the kind of stuff and feelings and ideas that will never make it onto the walls of the regular Ginza gallery beat.

The inaugural edge show features the work of four people from different parts of the world - Naoki Matsuyama (Milan), Pete Toms (New York), Arnaud Meuleman (Brussels) and Gilles Weinzapflen (Paris) - who represent samples of life in the twenty-first century as seen through the lens of a digital camera and often posted on the Internet. Their photos should be understood as what they are - documents of lives expressed and lived on blogs, journals and diaries. So, while they use photography to share with us what they see, they are not photographers, at least not in any preciously dull and ostentatiously posturing high art sense.

Opening Party: February 15th, 18:30-
