The gallery will exhibit some 40 black and white photographs taken by an Italian photographer Fanco Menon in Peshawar, the capital of “Province of North-West Frontier” of Pakistan. The photographer visited there in April 2001 and recorded daily occurrences among Afghani refugees and Pakistanis. 

 

The exhibition will be a charity event to support Dr. Tetsu Nakamura, a medical doctor and the local president of the NGO, Peshawar Society. Dr. Nakamura is giving lectures vigorously in various places to tell real Afghan and Pakistani situations that have not been reported by journalism. 

 

It will be sponsored by Tokibo Co., Ltd. and Sata Corporation with special thanks to Manfrotto and Libreria Palazzo Roberti.
