Hamaguchi Tarishi (1931-2018) was a news photographer who documented postwar Japanese society. In the turbulent era of the Showa era, he recorded people's lives, social changes, and historical turning points with a keen perspective. His works examine social injustice and contradictions from the perspective of citizens. This exhibition will introduce the historical moments he captured. The photos recording the stone-throwing incident during the Crown Prince's wedding procession reflect the social unrest hidden behind the festive atmosphere. The struggle surrounding the construction of Narita Airport revealed the fierce conflict between national policies and personal lives. In addition, at the scene of the student movement, the enthusiasm of young people under the call for social change and the oncoming power struggle were also engraved by the camera. Hamaguchi's works convey the figures of those who live in the torrent of the times. I hope that through these photos, you can feel the thoughts of people at that moment and take this opportunity to think about the social direction that has continued from the past to the present.

If you have time in Nara, you can visit the Irie Taiyoshi Photography Memorial Museum. He is a photographer who uses his camera to let more people know Nara. The Buddha statues and scenery he photographed all represent Nara. Although there are not many people in the museum, it is quiet. But you can experience it with your heart.

Going to Nara, if you don&#39;t go to Dongdaeji, it&#39;s a pity. Because you will miss the hall of the world&#39;s largest wooden structure, you will also miss the great opportunity to feel the charm of Tang Feng, and it is even more difficult to experience the joy of Liang Sicheng and other Chinese architectural masters who found Wutaishan Foguang Temple!

It is listed as one of the two major temples for the dissemination and research of Vinaya along with the Kaidan-in of Todaiji Temple. The banner on the gate of the temple, &quot;Tōshōdaiji&quot;, was written by the Japanese Empress Koken in the style of Wang Xizhi and Wang Xianzhi. There are lecture halls and ordination platforms from the Tenpyō era, golden halls from the Nara era, and drum towers from the Kamakura era in the temple. The golden hall, sutra collection, drum tower, and statue of Jianzhen are known as national treasures. Jianzhen also brought the high level of civilization of the Tang Dynasty in China, and promoted the improvement of the level of Buddhism, medicine, architecture, and sculpture in Japan. In 1980 and 2010, the statue of Jianzhen returned to Yangzhou twice to &quot;visit relatives&quot;. In 1998, Toshōdaiji was listed as a World Cultural Heritage as an important part of the &quot;Cultural Heritage of the Ancient Capital of Nara&quot;.
