The Tokyo Industrial Exhibition (Tōkyō Kangyō Hakurankai) was held in Tokyo, Japan in 1907. Held in Ueno Park, the event celebrated Imperial Japan's economic prowess and patriotism.[1][2] The event succeeded the five prior National Industrial Exhibitions, but was not organized by the central government. A sixth industrial exhibition had been postponed due to the Russo-Japanese War.[3]
A ferris wheel was installed and featured on a postcard from the event.[4] Electric lights were displayed. Natsume Sōseki wrote about them.[5]
Baron Senge Takatomi was an organizer.[6]
An illustrated catalogue of art exhibits was published.[7][8] Charles Albert Francis, an American machinist working for Toyota in Tokyo,[9] wrote an article about the event that was published with illustrations.[10] The Museum of Fine Arts in Boston has a lithograph of the exhibition's first building.[11] The Tokyo Industrial Exhibition, an extra number of the Teikoku Gaho, an illustrated monthly magazine, was published for the event.[12]
The 1910 Japan–British Exhibition held in London, the 1914 Taisho Promotion Exhibition,[13][14] and the 1915 Chosŏn Industrial Exposition held in Gyeongseong (Seoul) on the Korean peninsula under Japanese rule followed.[15]
The film An Introduction to the Actual Condition of Taiwan was screened at the exposition. Artist Okada Saburōsuke won a first prize category at the event.
