One of Japan’s largest urban photography festivals has returned to Tokyo. Now in its seventh year, it runs until October 27 across multiple venues in Yaesu, Nihonbashi, Kyobashi and Ginza.
This year’s edition features prints by photographic legend Stephen Shore at Tokyo Midtown Yaesu, as well as photographs by internationally acclaimed contemporary photographers Melissa Schriek and Stephen Gill as public artworks. On weekdays, be sure to visit “Visions of Japanese Women Photographers Seen in Photobooks” from I’m So Happy You Are Here (2024), a retrospective on the history of Japanese women photographers through photo books that include works by Mayumi Suzuki, among many others.
Be sure to download the official festival map before heading out. Some exhibits are closed on weekends. More information can be found on the official website.
