Tokyo Tsukiji Exhibition
Civic Museum of Oriental Art, Trieste 25/10/2019
The historical photos of the Trieste Fish Market of the Photo Library of the Civic Museums of History and Art, together with some Japanese fish-themed ceramics from the collections of the Civic Museum of Oriental Art, interact with the contemporary photos taken in Tokyo by Nicola Tanzini.
The protagonist of the photographic exhibition is the fish market, or rather the fish markets of Tokyo and Trieste, now places of memory that, despite the geographical distance, show our eyes human values, cultural and historical, different and transversal at the same time.
Selection by Claudia Colecchia, head of the Photo Library of the Civic Museums of History and Art, and Michela Messina, curator of the Civic Oriental Museum, for the Trieste section.
The exhibition, which will be accompanied by the presentation of the book by Nicola Tanzini, Tokyo Tsukiji (Contrasto, 2018) will open during the opening days of the Trieste Photo Days event and will remain on display until 6 January 2020.
