I am off to the Japan EXPO in Paris to introduce, exhibit, and perform a sampling of Nanba Arts!
My good friend and photographer magnifique David Michaud has given us great support, and has also announced our coming on his blog. Though it is written in French, you can still enjoy the links and photos! Thanks to David's photos and generous introduction through his photo blog, we will be able to feature the best of some 8,000 photos he took for us in Kagawa Prefecture, as well as in-depth coverage of our Nanba activities in Tokyo.
We want to thank David, for covering our activities in Nanba at Toho Gakuen, covering a wide range of Nanba (physical finesse) applied to running and walking, body movement and dance, classical music and ballet, martial arts, and traditional Japanese dance. He has followed and documented it all for us as a professional, as a friend, and as someone whose love for Japanese culture illuminates every photo.
We also want to congratulate David on the publication of his beautiful book of photos, JAPON.
If I had to choose a single phrase to describe it, it would be, visual haiku.
