A limited-time "fish exhibition (GYO TEN)" is being held
at "Tsukiji Yorimichikan". This is an original fish painting exhibition drawn with crayons by Yasumi Kato.
Today (10/16 (Sat)) is Tsukiji Autumn Festival. The weather is fine, so I took a look at the out-of-office market. It was around 11 o'clock, but each street in the out-of-market market was full of people.
On the way back, I stopped by Tsukiji Yorimichikan on the second floor of the Tsukiji KY Building (Harumi-dori St. and Shin-ohashi-dori St.' corner building).
There are 108 items such as fish and shellfish, shrimp and octopus drawn by Kyumi Kato. I think I'm going to swim now.
Each seafood comments on the production area, seasonal season, and delicious ways to eat.
On the wall opposite the corridor, there are also large pictures of "Madako", "Salmon", "red sea bream" and "Crofin tuna" written for this fish exhibition. It's so powerful.
There were fish of a more authenticish primary color that appealed to sensibility, which cannot be expressed in photographs influenced by light and shadow.
The holding period is short from October 15 (Fri) to 30 (Sat), 2010.
"Seeing is at first glance", please take a look when you visit Tsukiji. Admission is free.

By the way, did you know "Token"? It seems to be "Japan Sakana Test", and I didn't know "O umbrella".
On May 23, this year (2010), the "1st Japan Fish Test" was held. (Success rate: 91% for grade 3 and 53% for grade 2.)
The official guidebook is on sale at the stand next door.
There are many marine products such as fish, but it was drawn by Yumi Kato.
Today we have a lot of opportunities to eat meat dishes, but Japan, surrounded by the sea on all sides, is originally a fish-eating ethnic group, and it seems that we have long built a history by eating seasonal seafood.
In order to eat delicious fish, it may be a good idea to increase the basic knowledge of fish.
In that sense, "Token" may be a good opportunity to increase the knowledge of marine products as ingredients and become fish lovers.
In the "Fish Exhibition" corner of this "Tsukiji Yori Michikan", an introduction panel of "Totoken" and a panel of "Excerpt of Problem" are also displayed.
Why don't you try the certification and become a “tradition” of fish as an ingredient?
After this exhibition is over, he will return to the exhibition of Nishiki-e from the late Tokugawa shogunate and Meiji eras of Tsukiji. (Please see the blog on 9/14 of "O umbrella".)
