Panel - Hiroshima and the Post-War Japanese Experience

In partnership with the art exhibit A Call for Peace: Iri and Toshi Maruki’s Hiroshima Panels & Artifacts from the Bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki at BU's Stone Gallery, BUCSA is hosting a panel exhibition focused on Hiroshima and its lasting effects in Japan following World War II.

We will be screening the 1986 film Hellfire: A Journey Through Hiroshima, which will be promptly followed by a panel discussion. Professor of International Relations Thomas Berger (BU), Associate Professor of Japanese Art and Architecture Alice Tseng (BU), and Associate Professor of History Franziska Seraphim (Boston College) will be participating in what is sure to be a lively and engaging discussion.

Please join us Tuesday, October 6, 2015 from 4:00 to 7:00 p.m. as we explore the lasting effects the bombing of Hiroshima had on the social, economic, and political culture of Japan not only in 1945, but in modern day as well. Co-Sponsored by the BU Pardee School of Global Studies Center for the Study of Asia, College of Fine Arts, and the Department of Art and Architecture.
