DESCRIPTION:Featuring new work by seven artists -Mark Baugh-Sasaki, Ariel Goldberg, 
 Mayumi Hamanaka, Taro Hattori, Sean McFarland, Kari Orvik and Kelli Yon - 
 in response to the thousands of photographs recovered from the city of 
 Yamamoto after the devastating earthquake and tsunami in Japan on March 11, 
 2011.\nEyewitness accounts described Yamamoto as “one of the worst-hit 
 areas” with no houses left undamaged. The artists’ new work will be 
 installed alongside these photographs by Japanese photographer Munemasa 
 Takahashi, in the months following the disaster to help raise awareness of 
 the continuing relief efforts in Japan. This exhibition looks at how much 
 photography is a part of our lives, the universality of photos, and the 
 tragedy of when those moments, emotions, and memories captured in 
 photographs are swept away in an instant. “After the disaster occurred, 
 the first thing the people who lost their loved ones and houses came to 
 look for was their photographs,” Takahashi says. “Only humans take 
 moments to look back at their pasts, and I believe photographs play a big 
 part in that. This exhibit makes us think of what we have lost, and what we 
 still have to remember about our past.” This exhibition was organized in 
 part by Ivan Vartanian, an independent curator and publisher based in 
 Tokyo, Japan.\n\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2012/09/05/18721015.php
