Held in Tokyo from Wednesday, September 11, 2024, to Wednesday, October 9, 2024, "Super Natural!" is an exhibition commemorating the 160th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Switzerland and Japan, featuring six photographers from both countries. As part of the "Swiss Vitality Days" program, this exhibition is made possible through the cooperation of the museum Photo Elysée in Lausanne, Switzerland, the Tokyo-based contemporary photography collective, Tokyo Photographic Research, and the Embassy of Switzerland in Japan.
Pristine, precise, and prosperous; attractive, safe, and reliable – Switzerland and Japan have much in common in the collective imagination. This resonance is simultaneously real, imagined, embodied, fantasized, experienced, and mediatized.
Idealized societies; an abundance of unspoiled nature; immaculate and picturesque countryside; technological engineering and progress; medical biotechnology: all these fragments tell the story of a seemingly perfect order.
As Switzerland and Japan celebrate 160 years of bilateral relations in 2024, “Super Natural” explores this mutual fascination through the eyes of photographers of both countries. The exhibition is an initiative of Photo Elysée - Museum for Photography - in Lausanne and the Embassy of Switzerland in Japan, in cooperation with Tokyo Photographic Research.
