J-COLLABO presents an exhibit of mixed media pieces by Yuichi Sugai and video art installations by Miho Morita.Vigorous Showa examines and commemorates a period of rapid growth and evolution in 20th century Japan.
In Japanese history the Showa period represents the time of rapid social and economic growth that eventually established Japan as a world super power. This period is revered in Japanese history, since it followed many years of international and domestic upheaval including two world wars and the use of nuclear weapons that devastated the infrastructure as well as the spirit of many Japanese people. The period of Showa is often referred to as a “time of disturbance of turbulence.”
Vigorous Showa pays homage to this cherished time in Japan.
