Join us for a multimedia reading of the first English-language edition of Chris Marker’s 1982 photo-essay on Japan, Le Dépays. Inspired by readings of the book organized in Paris and Tokyo over a decade ago, our reading is voiced by artists Midori Hirose and Matt Carlson and features live music by Spencer Doran of Visible Cloaks. Marker’s photography from Le Dépays—which offers a stunning portrait of his favorite country through its people, cats, and metros—will be projected behind the readers while Doran’s live compositions create an atmosphere of high summer in Tokyo.
