To coincide with the publication of Subsequence Magazine vol.7, VISVIM GENERAL STORE / VISVIM GALLERY in the Naka Meguro area of Tokyo will host a special event Subsequence Salon.

Subsequence Salon is a pop-up gallery that exhibits and sells arts and crafts from all over the world for a limited time. Each work is carefully curated and selected by Subsequence Magazine. This time, we will be featuring the work of photographer Samuel Bradley and stylist Stephen Mann who have been crafting our visvim and WMV fashion pages since the very first issue of the magazine.  The exhibited works that will also be available for sale will consist of over 10 photographs that have been published in the magazine so far as well as certain cuts that have yet to be seen.

For each feature they produce, the only direction given from the editorial team is that the work aligns with the magazine’s theme for that edition.  They answer this request with visuals that express the boundless creativity they both have; the work is simply amazing.  Not only are the photo shoots elaborate, accompanied by eye catching props and special sets, but the small messages secretly hidden within the more minute details are surely a highlight.  Another interesting characteristic of these fashion pages is the fact they do not include any product captions.  This is intentional so any additional information will not disrupt the presentation of the visuals.   

In the magazine the layouts feature a luxurious large format that allows presentation of powerful visual pages with a print quality that has been adjusted to our liking, however nothing can beat the rich expressions of an original print that serves as the foundation for each feature.  You are able to catch the subtle nuances of facial expressions that get captured or see the detailed textures of the props and clothing, which is challenging to reproduce in a magazine.  This will also be the first time Samuel’s works will be exhibited in Japan.  We hope you will come in for a viewing on this special occasion.  

In addition to the latest issue of the magazine we will also have official merchandise and goods available for sale.  This will be a special salon event where you will have an opportunity to discover some wonderful things.
