Towada Oirase Art Festival Document Exhibition

The Towada Oirase Art Festival extended beyond Towada Art Center into the city of Towada and the majestic natural environment of the Towada-Oirase area. It proved to be one of Towada Art Center’s most visited exhibitions, and was extended in response to popular demand. The exhibition was a time to reflect on the Towada Oirase Art Festival and consider its future potential, and photos and videos detailing the festival were therefore displayed alongside documentation of the production process that led up to its opening. Additionally, a venue in central Towada screened a documentary film on the Oirase Fishery and Rest House, produced over the course of five months by Umeda Tetsuya, contact Gonzo, and Shiga Lieko.
