«L'histoire d'une ville de récits urbains ー" Espace Louis Vuitton Tokyo Omotesando à partir de la scène de l'art contemporain en Inde. IMA – LIVING WITH PHOTOGRAPHY. Tokyo Art Navigation. Tokyo Art Navigation is a website that was established with the aim of bringing art closer to the citizens of Tokyo by introducing the current culture and art scene in Tokyo.

Tokyo Art Navigation

There are many exhibitions and concerts being held in the art museums and music halls of Tokyo. The Tokyo Art Navigation site introduces information on these activities in real time. In addition, in an effort to support the activities of artists, the site also provides information as to activity spaces, available grants-in-aid, as well as contests. It is expected that the site will be fully utilized as a venue from which artists engaged in creative activities will be able to distribute their work and activity information. Moreover, the site provides a "Digital Museum" where valuable works and resources owned by the EDO-TOKYO-MUSEUM, the EDO-TOKYO OPEN AIR ARCHITECTUAL MUSEUM, the Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography and the MUSEUM of CONTEMPORARY ART TOKYO are introduced.

From small cuts in paper, over the duration of the exhibition, she constructs a strikingly beautiful, ephemeral cocoon around herself. Talking paper here are two other artist/art collective dealing with this media. Yuken Teruya who conveys a powerful political and environmental message with his microscopically paper cut trees sitting inside discarded McDonald’s and Chanel bags and Plaplax (Chikamori Motoshi, Kunoh Kyoko, Kakehi Yasuaki) playing with paper cuts and shadow.
