In the aftermath of the Great East Japan Earthquake\, the city underwent profound changes\, embracing resilience and reinvention. Contemporary photographers emphasize their unique perspectives\, utilizing the innovative possibilities of digital technology to portray a city adapting to rapid societal shifts.\n\nThrough comparing photographs for these two distinct periods\, the past\, present\, and future image of Tokyo comes to clearly emerge and reveal itself.\n\nAs global interest in Tokyo remains strong\, this exhibition invites viewers to explore Japan’s capital as a city of complexity and transformation.
