This exhibition revisits Reborn-Art Festival, a brand new art, music, and food focused event that was held this summer at locations throughout Ishinomaki city center and Oshika Peninsula in Tohoku.
Scheduled at a time when Tohoku is going through a dramatic period of rebirth, those visiting the festival had the unique opportunity to encounter new people and ideas that wouldn’t be found anywhere else in Japan. Here, visitors had the chance to discover a new aspect of themselves that they had not yet glimpsed. In this way, the event was not just about the reconstruction of the Tohoku region, but also a festival that offered visitors a chance to be reborn.
This exhibition will present works and documentation that were exhibited at Reborn-Art Festival 2017, giving those who could not attend the event another opportunity to enjoy the work that was on offer there.
