PARCO MUSEUM TOKYO｜ Spanish artist Coco Capitán's solo exhibition will land for the first time in Japan
The exhibition "NASIVY: in fifty (definitive) photographs" by Spanish artist Coco Capitán will be the first landing in Japan. The solo exhibition, which began in London and also traveled to Amsterdam, reminded me of the imaginary sea world where sailors, "Lost Naïvy," live under themes such as adventure, belonging, and loss of innocence. In this exhibition, along with 50 photographic works, various found objects ("Finded objects") produced by Capitane were also exhibited for the first time. To celebrate the exhibition, a collection of works published for the first time in Japan will be on sale. We will deliver the completed form of a series that will continue to produce over 10 years.

WHITE CINE QUINTO｜ All-night screening of "Nikkatsu Roman porn" welcomes beginners
"Nikkatsu Roman Porn" has played an important role in the history of Japanese cinema and has produced many masterpieces and directors. Due to the impact of the label name, many people may avoid watching it before the appeal of the work is conveyed. In addition, there is a high hurdle for those who are unfamiliar to watch the theater, and there are few opportunities to enjoy casually. From such thoughts, we will hold an introductory event for beginners to get to know the charm this time. I hope you will experience romance porn on the screen that is still alive.
