A tale of two cities

While the fashion world creams itself over Tokyo streetstyle, a photographic exhibition reveals the seedier side of Japan's capital city. Get down to Selfridges on Oxford Street next week for Tokyo Life - a massive promotion 18 months in the making which focuses on positive and commercial aspects of the city's culture including fashion, art and furniture. Alternatively, head for Brixton where Bruce Gilden's GO exhibition gives a rather different impression. Gilden captures the city's lowlife - prostitutes, biker gangs and members of the Japanese mafia (Yakuza) who show off their mutilated fingers and smart suits.
  • Tokyo Life at Selfridges Oxford Street - for one month from May 1
  • GO, Photofusion Gallery, 17a Electric Lane, Brixton, London SW9
  • Tel: 020 7738 5774 until May 12 (admission free)
