Shibuya Hikarie "8 /" Pick Up in July
都内での五輪開催を目論み、招致合戦が熱を帯びる2013年・東京。東京の魅力を紹介するプレゼンでは、相撲・着物などの伝統的な日本文化から、「カワイイ」ファッションや秋葉原など現代の東京で盛り上がる最新のカルチャーまでをPRしている様子が伝えられる。東京開催が決まるのか否かは全く予想がつかないが、一連のニュースを通して、日本に住んでいると「当たり前」なものとして慣れ親しんでいるものが、果たして外国人にはどのように映っているのだろうか。それを想像するだけでも楽しい。 今回は渋谷ヒカリエで7月に開催される展示から、幅広く日本の姿を捉えた企画を紹介したい。世界各国でも人気が高い「カワイイ」カルチャーのルーツを紹介する展示や、感謝の気持を贈答品で伝える「お中元ギフト」にフォーカスした企画、さらに日本有数の観光スポットである「京都」の現在を伝えるアート展をピックアップ。この機会に日本にいるとなかなか気が付かない「日本の魅力」を改めて感じてみてほしい。
