Zen Foto Gallery Zen Foto Gallery is a photography gallery and a publisher specializes in Asian photography.

Zen Foto Gallery opened in September 2009 in Tokyo, to specialize in Asian photography with a particular emphasis on China. Our aims are: to show interesting exhibitions, to be experimental, to provide stimulating works that would otherwise be rarely seen and to introduce innovative young photographers. In all we hope to provide a forum for greater appreciation of contemporary and historical works of Asian photography. ASIAN PHOTOGRAPHY Zen Foto aims to be a bridge between Japan and China and a platform for the best of classic and contemporary photography from both countries. So far our exhibitions have included leading Chinese photographers Liu Zheng, Wang Ningde, RongRong & Inri, Moyi and Yang Yankang, and younger up-and-coming artists such as Muge, Liu Ke, Han Chao and 223. Among Japanese artists we have held exhibitions by Nobuyoshi Araki, Kazuo Kitai, Mao Ishikawa, Seiryu Inoue, vintage works by Ihei Kimura, Kanbei Hanaya and Iwata Nakayama. Younger Japanese photographers we have shown include Takehiko Nakafuji, Kazuyoshi Usui, Tatsuya Shimohira, Daisuke Ito and Masayuki Nakaya. LIMITED EDITION PHOTOGRAPHY BOOKS Along with most exhibitions, we publish limited edition photography books, producing a resource for enthusiasts of contemporary Japanese and Chinese photography. Our publications to date include "Kazuo Kitai in China, 1973" (Kazuo Kitai, 2010), "Life in Philly" (Mao Ishikawa, 2010), "Night Crawler 1995, 2010" (Takahiko Nakafuji, 2011), and joint publication with Taka Ishii Gallery of "The Theater of Love" (Nobuyoshi Araki, 2011). RARE CLASSIC JAPANESE PHOTOGRAPHY We also offer some of the rare secondhand classic Japanese photography books and vintage prints of Ihei Kimura, Seiryu Inoue, Iwata Nakayama and so forth.

Zen Foto Gallery is pleased to announce its return to Paris Photo, held Wednesday, November 11th to Sunday, November 15th, 2026 at the Grand Palais, Paris.
⁡
Following its debut at Paris Photo in 2025 with Love of Shadows — Two Women’s Stories, Zen Foto Gallery returns for its second participation with a broader presentation bringing together six photographers whose work explores memory, history, identity, and lived experience across East Asia. Titled Photography as Witness, the presentation considers the ways photographers bear witness to moments of political upheaval, cultural transformation, intimate relationships, and everyday life.
⁡
Together, these six bodies of work demonstrate photography’s ability to bear witness to history, cultural change, and the intimate realities of individual lives. Photography as Witness reflects Zen Foto Gallery’s ongoing commitment to presenting distinctive voices in Asian photography and exploring the medium’s capacity to preserve both personal and collective memory.
⁡
A guided tour of Zen Foto Gallery’s booth with photography critic Kenji Takazawa will be held on November 13 (Fri) from 16:00 to 17:00.

禅フォトギャラリー東京では、明日10月2日(金)より、Tokyo Rumando個展「The Body Lurking Within Color」を開催いたします。

本展では、色の空間をテーマに、色面と自身の身体の境界線と向き合い、その共振を探る新作を中心に、和紙による大判プリント9点を展示します。
⁡
「『確かな存在』と『潜伏』という相反する行為の狭間では、刻まれた時間や記憶、感情と思考、そして私の選択が駆け巡っています。」
⁡
「潜伏する、カモフラージュすることは、単なる隠れるという行為だけではなく、変化の激しい現代社会を生き抜くためのポジティブなアクションであると捉えます。」
⁡

【Opening Tomorrow | Tokyo Rumando “The Body Lurking Within Color”】
⁡
Zen Foto Gallery Tokyo is pleased to present “The Body Lurking Within Color,” a solo exhibition by Tokyo Rumando, opening tomorrow, October 2.
⁡
The exhibition explores color as a spatial environment, examining the boundary between fields of color and the artist’s own body. Nine large-format works printed on Japanese washi will be on view.
⁡
“Between the seemingly contradictory states of ‘definite presence’ and ‘lurking,’ time and memory, emotions and thoughts, and the choices I have made continue to circulate.”
⁡
“I consider lurking and camouflage not simply as acts of hiding, but as positive actions—strategies for navigating and surviving within a contemporary society characterized by constant and rapid change.”
⁡
— Tokyo Rumando
⁡
We warmly invite you to experience the works in the gallery.
⁡
On October 3, Tokyo Rumando will also join Zen Foto Gallery director Mark Pearson for an artist talk, followed by the opening reception.
