The World Cup, the once-every-four-years football festival, is reaching its climax. This exhibition is a compilation of photographs taken by photographer Kisshomaru Shimamura, who visited four Russian cities (Moscow, Saransk, Volgograd, and Sochi) where the World Cup was being held from June 17th to 25th with "SHUKYU Magazine." Photographs of supporters gathering at the stadium, local people, and cityscapes allow you to feel the vivid atmosphere of the local area that cannot be conveyed through the daily news reports alone.
The venue will sell related goods including "SHUKYU Magazine," as well as items exclusive to this exhibition.

In addition, starting at 10:00 PM on July 15th, a related event will be held on the 2nd floor of VACANT, featuring a screening of the World Cup final.
