Roppongi Art Night 2017
All art, all night long. That’s the idea behind Roppongi Art Night, and although past years have been a bit meh, this year it was totally worth staying out late! These were my favorite bits:
Stills can’t really do this thing justice, so here’s a one-minute video for your mesmerizing pleasure:
But of course, it’s way better to see it in action:
And finally, this. (It’s called “Suit” by Makoto Egashira)

Writing mystery books set in Tokyo is mostly what I do, but I also blog about the odd stuff I see every day in Japan. I'm a graduate of Stanford University and the Sendagaya Japanese Institute in Tokyo, and a member of the International Thriller Writers, the Mystery Writers of America, and Sisters In Crime. When I'm not in Tokyo, I live in San Francisco. I also host a travel site called The Tokyo Guide I Wish I'd Had, so if you're headed to Japan and want to check out the places I take my friends when they're in town, take a look!
So fascinating
So glad you could enjoy it with me! （＾ω＾）
I miss all that crazy art they do so well there!
I do too, when I’m in the States! The exhibits change so FAST here too – there’s always something new. I remember the first time I moved back to San Francisco, and while eagerly checked out the museum exhibits, was astounded that they were scheduled to be there for THREE MONTHS. heh. (On the other hand, I’ve also learned to remotely identify the Japanese art stuff that looks way cooler in the pictures than it will probably be in real life – there’s a LOT of that here, and for every post-worthy art thing, there are usually ten schleps to meh stuff.)
