Hideo Haga Photograph

Japan is often seen as a high-tech society and an economic leader in industry and manufacturing. Though true, Japan is also a society that reflects on its deep roots and historical traditions. This exhibition presents photography by artists documenting traditional Japanese culture. On display from January 23 to March 17, works by Hideo Haga capture the celebration of folk festivals in Tohoku, a region of northern Japan. From March 20 to October 6, works by Morton Huber document change and tradition in everyday life in the Chubu region.  The exhibit includes text in English and Japanese.
