The NoNukes Poster Exhibition in Berlin

The popular art festival 48 Stunden (“hour”) Neukolln was held from 7pm Friday June 17 to 7pm Sunday June 19. It is held annually in the rapidly growing Neukolln district. Discovering unexpected spaces and extraordinary artworks by both professionals and amateurs from a variety of backgrounds in all sorts of places including cafes, courtyards, footpaths, homes and studios is what makes this festival unique.
　　
As part of this event, a friend and I planned a poster exhibition in a studio. The theme was “a right to education for all children”, but because they too were posters, the NoNukes artworks went perfectly. So really wanting to show off this project, we changed our original plan and hastily put together an exhibition of some 20 works.
　　
These NoNukes posters provided a good opportunity to talk about issues like the situation in Japan, which does not make the news much any more, nuclear power and natural (renewable) energy. There were designers who wanted to submit their own posters as well as someone who said they knew a good place for the poster exhibition. It was Neukolln, which was previously a rough district and one people avoided, but with the phenomenal growth of this festival, the number of visitors to the area each year is growing annually. Despite the unsettled weather that weekend, many people came to see our poster exhibition.
　
Text and photos by Natsuyo Koizumi

Germans were surprised to learn that people in Japan knew about “Bremen”. The sense of a cross-border danger to food is probably a theme that everyone can relate to.

There were also people who were amazed that Japan’s reliance on nuclear power is surprisingly low.

For some reason the A3 NoNukes poster that Mr. Yamamoto put up at the entrance on Saturday was gone on Sunday. Someone probably really liked it and took it.

On the Sunday, some neighbors set up a flea market at the entrance, which also drew people to our exhibition.

This is for reference. Places marked with a number are where events were held. This is one of the six districts the festival was divided among.

Postscript from Mr. Yamamoto in the office: Thank you for the exhibition, photos and text, Ms. Koizumi. The preparation must have taken a while, but I’m impressed that many seem to be interested!

This kind of non-profit exhibition made up of posters is liberating. Feel free to hold such an exhibition in your area. We are looking for more opportunities to do so even in Berlin.

This is the explanation about the poster exhibition that Natsuyo prepared. It was very well done.

The familiar “NoNukes” poster that was stolen – I guess we should be honored (!?).

The NoNukes Poster Exhibition in Leipzig, Germany

The NoNukes Poster Exhibition was held at Das Japanische Haus (“The Japanese House”) from August 6-14. Das Japanische Haus has summer projects from July to September, hosting programs aimed at helping the devastated region and various Japan-themed events. The NoNukes Poster Exhibition opened in conjunction with the Hiroshima-Fukushima event on August 6 and, with the Subculture Day event also held during the exhibition, drew a total of over 100 visitors.

The baton will now be passed when the NoNukes Poster Exhibition leaves Germany and crosses the ocean to San Francisco. The No Nukes message appears to be spreading throughout the world.

About the NO NUKES poster exhibition (nonukeart.org)

How it started

It began with the Nuclear Power Day poster contest held by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology and the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry from 1994 to 2011. The contest collected posters primarily from elementary and junior high school students across the country as a way of furthering the understanding of nuclear power and radiation.

There were mounting calls on Twitter to hold a No Nukes poster exhibition to counter this contest and just as members of Citizen Media REALISER were getting the site ready, the Great East Japan Earthquake hit. So they quickly got the site up and running and were flooded with entries the minute they started calling for posters on April 30. There were over 1,200 submissions.

The spread of the poster exhibition

At first we started by simply trying to collect NO NUKES posters and having people take them to protests, but the posters instantly spread throughout the country with works from the poster exhibition becoming a definite fixture at protests.
　　

The Uchiwa (Japanese for “hand-held fan”) No Nukes Project, which started in Kyoto and inspired the posters, also spread across Japan with hundreds of thousands of fans printed with images from the poster exhibition distributed at summer festivals nationwide. A range of other goods bearing the poster images including t-shirts and badges have also spread.

Exhibitions of independently printed posters in galleries and the like have also spread and have been held in over 30 locations not just domestically in Tokyo and the prefectures of Aichi, Gifu, Nagano and Kagawa, but also in places such as Berlin, Leipzig, Barcelona and San Francisco.

Poster Exhibition for Nuclear-Free Communities

Nagoya’s Mothers Concerned About Nuclear Power and Sendai’s Miyagi Action Group also loan out over 200 A2-sized laminated posters entitled “Poster Exhibition for Nuclear-Free Communities” throughout Japan.
