[press]Our first Photo Book "Zasso"
The forest view through windows in canaria totally changed green,
and the weather is getting a little more bearable. How are you doing these days?
Canaria published the first photo book, "Zasso." ( Zasso means weeds in Japanese. )
The photographs of weeds were selected from over a hundred photos taken by Yuji Tokuda.
Using these photographs, we also held the exhibition on the Kotto Street in Tokyo three years ago.
After coming back from the Netherlands, I was blown away by cleanliness of streets in Tokyo,
and I noticed the presence of weeds. The weeds looks low-key, but strong and vigorous.
If they are mowed, they will grow wild soon and produce flowers. We designed this book thinking of such strong and free plants.
We portrayed a book as a concrete street and displayed small photographs at random.
I hope you enjoy our book.

[press]The exhibition "Arab Express" will be held at Mori Museum from June.16th.
Canaria took part in its graphic design and the signage in the exhibition.
All eyes are now on the contemporary artists of the Arab world
From lifestyles to identity, the rapidly transforming Arab world possesses a diversity of cultures that cannot be
overstated. And the traditions, religion, customs and aesthetics that constitute that diversity are vividly
reflected in the work of the region's artists.
In the last few years, many exhibitions of contemporary art from the Arab world have been held globally,
and within the region itself there are indications that the art industry is maturing, with Mathaf: Arab Museum of
Modern Art opening in Doha (Qatar) in 2010, and branches of the Louvre and the Guggenheim Museum now under
construction in Abu Dhabi (United Arab Emirates). "Arab Express" introducing the artworks by approximately 30
artists from the Arabian Peninsula and surrounding Arab countries, is the first exhibition of its kind ever to be held in Japan.
This exhibition commemorates the 40th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Japan
and Kingdom of Bahrain, Sultanate of Oman, State of Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates; as well as the 50th
anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Japan and the State of Kuwait and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
