There is a new addition to the NADiff a/p/a/r/t— the MEM gallery. The gallery has been established in 2003 in Osaka, and has recently relocated to Tokyo. Their inagural exhibition at NADiff showcases the recent work by two Beijing-based photographers RongRong and Inri, a couple that met in 1999 and embarked on a productive personal and professional collaboration. After 2000 the two became something of an art brand, opening, in  2006, the Three Shadows Photography Art Centre which contains a library, a gallery, dark rooms and artist residencies. The fourteen works on view blend personal life with social statements, oscillating between the timeless and the current. 

The show will run through October 22.
