Photography in Japan seems to be the media which does not have much of Western influeunce and brings up new quality to the field. That's why it is not surprising that it already gained world recognition and is on the spotlight during this year Paris Photo. Below just a random selecion of artist who are shown during the exhibition and fair.

| Ueda Yoshihiko, Bones and stoneware, recent |
The series Bones and stoneware is the recent project of this leading
contemporary photographers with the advertising background in which he
collaborated with University of Tokyo photographing the collections of
the university museum.

| Ikeda Akiko, Their sight/your sight (since 2000) |
 |
| Yoneda Tomoko, Lovers from After the thaw series, 2004 |
Seemingly ordinary photo which turns out to be battle fields which changed the course of history or places after the great disasters. And then suddenly our perception changes - the photographs are no longer so ordinary.
