Business Overview

In this exhibition, in addition to the 200 photographs of the area around Shibuya Station taken by Tadayasu Onishi since the previous exhibition in 2023, 100 photographs of Harajuku and Daikanyama have been added and reconstructed. You can compare the changes to the current landscape through Google Street View using a large printed map showing where the photos were taken and a QR code attached to each photo. In addition, in cooperation with the supporting city of Shibuya, a large-format print of a public relations paper of the same age as the photos on display from the digital archive site “SHIBUYA CITY RECORD ” was displayed to convey a sense of presence. A talk session between Michihiko Yanai and Tetsuya Chihara will be held during the exhibition. As all the seats were taken, it became an event to trace the past and present of Shibuya from the perspective of a creator with a connection to Shibuya. The exhibition was interviewed by various media including newspapers, TV and radio, and a total of about 6,600 visitors enjoyed the exhibition in 9 short days.
