"Teach Your Children (Teach Your Children)". It's the name of the rock band Crossby Steels, Nash & Young, which Arao Yokogi loved. The title of this exhibition and the photo book was given in a homage to them.
Yokogi, a photographer who is currently active in the commercial and editorial photography fields, has been drawing attention as a writer, and has been snapping around Tokyo and his local cities such as Ichikawa, Shonan, and Fussa from the 1960s to the 1970s. The "hers of that day" cut out by a finder are like witnesses of the times.
This exhibition is to review, edit, and present a huge amount of personal shots of young urban residents taken by Yokoki before becoming independent as a free photographer for the first time in about 30 years.
