Friday Night on the Town

It was our first Friday night in Tokyo. Four or five of us headed out for a little modern/contemporary culture at the fashionable Roppongi Hills Mori Tower.

I am not much for contemporary art, but this exhibit was exceptional. The artist were asked to submit a piece of work that dealt with perspective. There was everything from a replica of Tokyo from recycled bolts, screws, and nuts to a year long self portrait or the recreation of the daily newspaper (in Japanese characters of course). I was disappointed that we were not able to take photos. We did get to vote on our favorite at the end. It will be interesting to see which piece will come out as the favorite!
