SUMMARY:Exhibition: Love Planet - sending love of the plants all over the world through photography
DESCRIPTION:CRS presents Love Planet —  sending love of the plants all over the world through photography\, an exhibition by photographer yukko＊. The exhibition will open Saturday\, July 7\, 2018 and will remain on view through August 30\, 2018. An Opening Reception with live music by the artist will be held on July 7 from 5 – 7 pm. \nConcept \n‘Love Planet Project’ was created by photographer yukko＊ to share love of plants all over the world through photography. \nThe aim of this project is for the plants in yukko＊’s photo postcards to be delivered all over the world by those who join this project by ‘pay-it-forwarding’. \nIn this show the original prints of the postcards and posters of the 16 selected photos used for the project postcards as well as the actual postcards themselves will be displayed. \n All her photos were taken with a film camera\, and none of them have been re-touched by the computer. \nArtist Statement \nPlants have always seemed to be very close to me since I was a child.  Without recognizing it\, I started taking photos and naturally I became a photographer specializing in pictures of plants. Gradually I noticed that I always felt the affection and graciousness of the plants while taking photos\, and started to want to try to transform the plants’ energy of love into light through photography. At the same time I started to talk to the plants when taking photos saying\, “Please let me deliver your love to those who need it.” \nHaving seen visitors to my photo exhibition shed tears while looking at my photos\, it became certain to me that the wave of love of plants can be passed on to us human beings\, and I decided to deliver the love of plants all over the world through photography.  As a start\, I have launched this ‘Love Planet Project’ in New York through this photo exhibition at CRS. \nBio \nyukko＊ was born and raised in Sapporo\, Japan. She became interested in different cultures when she saw a lot of foreign guests at the winter Olympic games in her hometown when she was a child. She kept this interest in the world and became an English translator at the local government after she studied at Kings College\, London. During her career as a translator she came to understand the cultural diversity as well as re-recognizing the spiritual nature of Japanese people. \nAfter being transferred to the suburbs to work as a government staff member in charge of tourism\, she started to take photographs as a part of her work. Before long she became absorbed in photography and came to recognize that photos reflect what the photographer sees and feels. \nShe experienced depression during her career in government and decided to quit and start her new career as a photographer based in Osaka. \nNow she holds photo exhibitions in various places in Japan as well as photo classes and portrait shooting.  She also works as a personal fashion-consultant and also as a singer.  She is an integrated artist supporting people to live honestly according to their nature. \nhttp://yukko-web.net/love-planet-project/jp \n

SUMMARY:Music Concert:  Rio x Rio Special Live in NY
DESCRIPTION:CRS presents Rio x Rio Special Live in NY\, a showcase of dazzling rock-style sanshin playing by Rio Inyaku (kankara-sanshin and vocal) and melodic ballads by Rio’ (piano and vocals)\, two exceptional young musicians from Japan\, on August 23\, 2018 at 8 pm. The teen phenoms will each play a solo set and also perform together. After the concert we invite you to stay and enjoy refreshments with Rio x Rio. \nThere is a suggested donation of $20 cash. Please RSVP here. Families and kids are welcome! \n7:40 pm Doors open\n8:00 pm Concert begins\n9:30 – 10 pm Reception *ready to serve food and drink donations are also welcome! \nAbout the Performers \nRio Inyaku is a 16-year-old can-based sanshin (kankara-sanshin) player. He plays kankara-sanshin extremely fast and also behind his neck just like Jimi Hendrix. He uses effects pedals and a loop station connector with kankara-sanshin\, which makes his music unique. He has performed live in many cities\, including on big stages such as “World Eisa Contest 2017” held at the National Theater Okinawa\, and “Sanshin-day\,” one of the biggest folk song festivals in Japan. \nRio’s set of Okinawan folk songs\, fusion of Okinawan and American pop\, and remix of Ryukyo classical and folk music and his amazing performance with two sanshins will surely bring you the joy of living from the South Island! \nhttp://riomusic.rederio.jp\nhttps://www.facebook.com/OkinawaRio\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6EV5c198GqU \nThe Kankara-sanshin I play with is originally a handmade can-based music instrument that comforted Okinawan people in the aftermath of the 2nd World War. Okinawa\, which is located in southern-most Japan\, consists of many beautiful islands with rich culture and friendly people. In 1945 the battle of Okinawa was fierce and many people died\, but the survivors never lost their love of life\, nor their love of music\, and they restored the community. My dream is to create new Okinawan songs and sing with friends all over the world to make the Earth a happier place to live. Let’s enjoy music and celebrate the joy of living altogether!  — Rio Inyaku \nRio’ is a14-year-old singer-songwriter and pianist. She has been learning the basics of music and piano since she was three years old\, and since she was six years old also music theory and composition. She has won a series of authoritative piano performance competitions and composition competitions every year\, and her outstanding career has attracted many music stake holders. She started writing songs with lyrics and playing the guitar in 2017 and her YouTube channel “Ririon” already developed a good reputation. In December 2017\, she recorded her original song “Daijoubu” (which means “You are OK” in English) with a band arrangement. It was distributed worldwide by iTunes\, Amazon Music etc. in February 2018. Drumming\, recording\, mixing and mastering are by Masatatsu Tsubuki\, a renowned recording engineer in Japan. She makes her inspiration from heaven into her lyrics and sings for the world with love and warmth. \nHer original music is distributed at https://www.tunecore.co.jp/artist/Rio_ririon\nFacebook https://www.facebook.com/Rio.ririon7/\nDigest videos https://youtu.be/LVZY-sYoTAY\nYouTube “Ririon” https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCuapS8rqLY4p8AtE52sI_fg \nI have composed many piano songs since I was little. One day when I was 13 years old\, I suddenly had an inspiration of lyrics and melodies; they naturally became a song. Since then\, when I am relaxed\, lyrics and melodies come to me at the same time\, which makes me feel like they are coming down from heaven. In April I stayed at the home of an American family in the Los Angeles suburbs\, and I realized we can communicate by music without words. I would like to make many people happy and cheerful with my music. At this concert I will sing my original songs and play my original piano instrumental composition. I am looking forward to seeing you all!      — Rio’ \n  \n

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Love Planet - sending love of the plants all over the world through photography
DESCRIPTION:CRS presents Love Planet —  sending love of the plants all over the world through photography\, an exhibition by photographer yukko＊. The exhibition will open Saturday\, July 7\, 2018 and will remain on view through August 30\, 2018. An Opening Reception with live music by the artist will be held on July 7 from 5 – 7 pm. \nConcept \n‘Love Planet Project’ was created by photographer yukko＊ to share love of plants all over the world through photography. \nThe aim of this project is for the plants in yukko＊’s photo postcards to be delivered all over the world by those who join this project by ‘pay-it-forwarding’. \nIn this show the original prints of the postcards and posters of the 16 selected photos used for the project postcards as well as the actual postcards themselves will be displayed. \n All her photos were taken with a film camera\, and none of them have been re-touched by the computer. \nArtist Statement \nPlants have always seemed to be very close to me since I was a child.  Without recognizing it\, I started taking photos and naturally I became a photographer specializing in pictures of plants. Gradually I noticed that I always felt the affection and graciousness of the plants while taking photos\, and started to want to try to transform the plants’ energy of love into light through photography. At the same time I started to talk to the plants when taking photos saying\, “Please let me deliver your love to those who need it.” \nHaving seen visitors to my photo exhibition shed tears while looking at my photos\, it became certain to me that the wave of love of plants can be passed on to us human beings\, and I decided to deliver the love of plants all over the world through photography.  As a start\, I have launched this ‘Love Planet Project’ in New York through this photo exhibition at CRS. \nBio \nyukko＊ was born and raised in Sapporo\, Japan. She became interested in different cultures when she saw a lot of foreign guests at the winter Olympic games in her hometown when she was a child. She kept this interest in the world and became an English translator at the local government after she studied at Kings College\, London. During her career as a translator she came to understand the cultural diversity as well as re-recognizing the spiritual nature of Japanese people. \nAfter being transferred to the suburbs to work as a government staff member in charge of tourism\, she started to take photographs as a part of her work. Before long she became absorbed in photography and came to recognize that photos reflect what the photographer sees and feels. \nShe experienced depression during her career in government and decided to quit and start her new career as a photographer based in Osaka. \nNow she holds photo exhibitions in various places in Japan as well as photo classes and portrait shooting.  She also works as a personal fashion-consultant and also as a singer.  She is an integrated artist supporting people to live honestly according to their nature. \nhttp://yukko-web.net/love-planet-project/jp \n
