Peeping into Japanese homes (22 July 17.00)

A lecture by Ass. Professor Anemone Platz

 

We hereby invite you to a lecture by Ass. Professor Anemone Platz of Aarhus University Japanese Studies at 22 July 17.00-18.30

 

Peeping into Japanese homes

 

Minimalistic design and scarcely but beautifully furnished rooms on the one hand, crowded miniature dwellings in greyish concrete suburbs on the other…These are some of the images that have persistently defined how we in Europe picture Japanese homes and living styles.

Taking these images as starting point the lecture will give some insight into how phenomena such as recession, globalization and a re-discovery of the family are leaving their traces in Japanese homes.

The venue is the Information and Cultural Centre - Pilestræde 61, 1112 Kbh. K

As usual, registration in advance is required at info@ch.mofa.go.jp, please register before July 19, first-come-first-served basis.
