From Above photography exhibition at the TENRI Cultural Institute features portraits of atomic bomb survivors from Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
In 2012, From Above was released as a limited edition multi-lingual photo book in English, Japanese and German. The book sold out internationally and gained media attention in North America, Japan, Europe and Australia. The project has also featured in numerous television, newspaper and radio reports from across the globe.
In addition to this,
From Above has been displayed on multiple occasions in international museums and exhibition spaces, including the United Nations in New York and the Nagasaki Prefecture Museum of Art.
The goal of From Above is to put a human face to the words in the history books.
The exhibition will be open August 2nd-15th. The gallery hours are:
Monday-Friday 12pm-6pm
Saturday 10-3pm
Closed on Sunday www.terni.org
On August 8, at 7pm – 10:30pm, there is a reception, peace concert, and live streaming of the commemoration ceremonies from Nagasaki.
From September 13th-Ocober 13 th I will be exhibiting the most recent portraits of atomic bomb survivors from the on-going FROM ABOVE series at the Kyoto Peace Museum in Kyoto, Japan. I have attached the posters and venue information.
Please take a look if you’re in Japan.
The book, FROM ABOVE, will be available at the venue. It has been released in Japan, US and Europe. This is where you can purchase the book.
These are the posters for the upcoming From Above photo exhibition in Hiroshima from August 3rd-31st.
This will be the 5th exhibition of the on-going portrait series about Hibakusha, atomic bomb survivors. This series in Hiroshima has not been shown before.
The book, From Above, will be released in Japan next week and is available at the venue. It will also be released in the US and Europe shortly after. I’m hoping it will be delivered to the stores in the US by the first week of August. More information will be posted next week on where it’s available on-line and in stores.
The exhibition will move to the Kyoto Peace Museum during September. The prints shown in Kyoto will be different than in Hiroshima. I will post information about the Kyoto exhibition in a couple of weeks.
