Hello there!
Thanks for visiting my web!
How are you all?
It’s already the middle of December now, and
I’m still busy doing a lot of work for the rest of this year!
I guess that you are also busy, so good luck with you all!
My shows in Lacoste, and Apt in the south of France are still open;
my “Dreaming Spirals” show at Atelier
d’art Fernand Bougeois in Apt is open until December
20th, and also my “Time Traveler’s Diary”
show at Galerie Pfriem in Lacoste is open until December
19th. So, please don’t miss them! (The info about these shows
is shown in my previous NEWS on November 1st).
I’m going to have a meeting with an English class of young students
in a local school in Apt soon. Last month, I had a lecture about my
works in the “Dreaming Spirals” show
with them and their teacher. They are young (16 years-old), but with
very mature attitudes towards art. All of the students were so wonderful!
They had many interesting opinions and questions about my works, and
I really enjoyed talking with them and answering their questions.
(Their English is very good, too!)
They have been making some art works about their own dreams
since I met them, and I ‘m very much looking forward to meeting
them again and also looking forward to seeing their works this month.
I can’t wait!
I will update some with photos from the shows in Lacoste and Apt after
they are closed. And, I will mention more about the people who helped
my shows in Lacoste and Apt…
Before that, I MUST update the “photo reports” from the
older “NEWS” which I haven’t done
yet…; 2 shows in September that were “Fotoseptiembre
USA” international photo festival in San Antonio, Texas,
and “Transformational Dialogue: David Gibson, Reiko
Imoto & Osamu James Nakagawa” exhibition at TWU
in Denton, Texas.
First of all, I would like to say “Thanks very much!”
for the great help and support to Michael Mehl and
Ann Kinser who are the organizers of Fotoseptiembre
USA, and Felix Padron who is the director
of the City of San Antonio Office of Cultural Affairs,
and also Gabriela Franco who is the director of
Instituto Cultural De Mexico where I had the show. Also,
thanks a lot for the kind support to Al Rendon
and Liz Rendon, and thanks for the kind
friendship to David Silvan and Jorge Pablo
de Aguinaco. Thanks so much to everyone who visited the show!
Everyone I met in San Antonio was so wonderful!!
Here are the snap shots from the “mini series”
solo show of my “Time Traveler’s Diary”
at Instituto Cultural De Mexico in “Fotoseptiembre
USA” in San Antonio ( 11 pics.). Please enjoy!;
Then also, fist of all, I would like to say “Thanks
a lot!” for the great help and support to Susan
kae Grant and Vance Wingate, who organized
and curated the 3 artists' show at Texas
Womans University (TWU). Also, thanks for
the help to Tanya Synar (TWU gallery
coordinator), Ashlae, Kerry and
Lidia, and also Jenny and Sunny
at TWU. Many thanks to Richard Klein
in Dallas, Motoyuki Kubo and Yumiko Kubo
(The PRINTS in Tokyo), and many thanks to the excellent
artists participated in the show with me; Osamu James Nakagawa
and David Gibson. Thanks so much to the students
at TWU and also UNT and everyone
who visited the show, reception and the lecture. Everyone I met in
Denton and Dallas was so wonderful!!
Here are the snaps from the “Transformational Dialogue:
David Gibson, Reiko Imoto & Osamu James Nakagawa”
exhibition at TWU in Denton ( 10 pics.). Let’s
see!;
I hope YOU are all well, and wishing YOU all a good holiday season!
I will try to update this NEWS page this month again!
So, please come back :)
Belgium is freezing cold now, but I see beautiful snow sometimes.
It’s the only lovely thing about winter… ha ha!
Please keep warm!
See you soon.
Best wishes,
Reiko ***
PS: I visited “Paris Photo” -the biggest
photo fair in Europe in November. The theme for the fair this year
was “Japan”… so, there were many
galleries and publishers from Japan. I was so happy to meet people
from Tosei-sha
from Tokyo (a publisher, and it has a gallery where I had a show this
year). Tosei-sha was invited to Paris Photo
this year! I was also so happy to meet my photographer friends –
Erwin Staeheli
from Switzerland, Elijah
Gowin and James
Nakagawa from the USA. Elijah gave me his new book "Maggie".
(Thanks a lot!) It is a wonderful book indeed!!
I also met a lot of new people there. The meetings were cool!
Hope to see YOU all soon!!

Hello there!
Thanks for visiting
my web!
How are you there?
Hope that you all are fine. Well, my solo show at Gallery
Tosei in Tokyo closed at the end of June.
There were so many people visiting the show, and I really appreciate
all of YOU who visited! Thank you!
I would really
like to thank to Mr. Kunihiro Takahashi, the president of Gallery
Tosei, and also thanks a lot to Ms. Maki Iwasaki and Ms.
Emi Fukuyama at Gallery Tosei, who helped my show
a lot. Also, thanks so much to Mr. Satoru Watanabe, the photographer
who helped my “Gallery Talk” show a lot. And, also thanks
a lot to Mr. Motoyuki Kubo and Ms. Yumiko Kubo at The PRINTS,
who printed 2 of my images as large prints. Thanks again to all of
YOU for your support!!!
Well, I could
have great time in Tokyo in June, specially at Gallery Tosei,
meeting so many photo-related people. Some of them talked to me about
their own dreams after looking at my work. I like to listen to something
around and beyond photography itself, so I was happy to listen to
such things, seeing other people’s subconscious world…
I guess that‘s the kind of communication that I really like
having through my photography! Again, thanks a lot to YOU all, and
hope to see you soon!!
The snap shots from the exhibit will be shown on this NEWS
page next time!! So, please come back soon!

I’ve been working on my new slideshows as well as a new series
of printed work! I hope to update them on this web site soon.
Well, I’ve found a camera called “Diana +” recently,
that is a remake version of the original “Diana”. I used
to look for the original one everywhere when I was living in the USA,
but I could never find it at that time. So, I’m quite happy
to have a “Diana+” and I’m looking forward to using
it with some colour films (!) as well. Let’s see how the images
will look like!
Hope that YOU
all are well!
Take care, and See you soon : )
Best wishes,
Reiko
