The protesters of the exhibition of the Peace Girls were suspended in the pressures of the Japanese government, but the opposition in Japan was growing, and those who planned the exhibition today (June 6) held a press conference to openly protest. The authors who participated in the exhibition also raised the voice that Japan should continue to apologize for the comfort women issue.

This was covered by correspondent for the Tokyo Shogunate.

The executive committee who planned the exhibition of the girl of peace gathered in one place.

The executive committee publicly sought the reason for the cancellation of the exhibition to the governor of Omura Aichi Prefecture, the chairman of the entire Triennale Executive Committee.

[Okamoto / Rich Genetic Executive Committee: We can never comprehend the decision to stop. I request the exhibition to resume as soon as possible.]

I also protested the threat of the unexplained substance as a reason for stopping the exhibition.

[Iwazaki / Rich Generation Executive Committee: We did not show it to us, even though the terrorist announcement or threatening fax was coming.]

Among the artists who participated in the exhibition, 72 others made a separate statement and stressed that they should "continue to regain free exhibitions from political pressure and terrorist threats."

The authors emphasized that the Peace Girl Award should not be about political repression.

[Nakagaki Katsuhisa / Participating writer: The comfort women case is because Japan was wrong about a hundred years and two hundred years later. I must continue to apologize.]

The organizers of the exhibition demanded an answer to the organizers of the Triennale until 10th, and pledged to fight for the freedom of expression in cooperation with more artists.
