Peek into the inner sanctums of some of Japan’s leading creative minds—from all-star architects like Toyo Ito and Tadao Ando to visionary design studio Nendo and internationally acclaimed artist Mariko Mori—with globe-trotting photographer Paul Barbera. For his most recent volume in his Where They Create series, Barbera visited the studios of artists, architects and fashion & product designers throughout Japan to capture the environments where they create their groundbreaking designs. Praised for their authenticity and warmth, Barbera’s intimate portraits of these spaces provide a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the creative processes of Japan’s top talents. Join us for a talk on the stories behind the studios and a panel discussion with artists & designers featured in the book. Followed by a reception.

Tickets: $13/$10 Japan Society members, seniors and students
