An International Festival Celebrating the Photographic Medium and Diverse Talent
Founded by Director Ihiro Hayami, T3 is a recurring photography festival that gives artists an opportunity to present their works in an international forum. The project consists of several events: a festival, a photo fair and a development program for new talent.
This year’s festival, revolving around the theme of “City as Garden,” reimagines various urban spaces as landscapes for curators to “plant” artworks. It will take place in 15 venues across Ginza, Kyobashi, Yaesu and Nihonbashi. Some highlights include works by American photographer Stephen Shore, a master of the New Color Movement; Dutch photographer Melissa Schriek, who balances fiction and reality in her poetic portraits; and a retrospective on the history of Japanese women photographers from 1950s onwards through photobooks, drawing upon the book I’m So Happy You Are Here (2024).
