The Nepal Peace Pagoda from Expo 88 - earlier this evening 20.9.2024. The Brisbane Wheel - in background - was erected for the 20th anniversary of Expo in 2008 and still welcomes guests today.

Discussion! The Unisphere remains at Flushing Meadows as an icon of the 1964-65 World’s Fair….. why don’t we bring back - as a permanent commemoration - the fantastic River Stage from Brisbane’s World Expo 88? (also pictured)

55 years ago today, Japan welcomed the world to #Expo1970 Osaka, the first World Expo in Asia and the most visited of the 20th century – a generation-defining event that embodied future ideals. This year, rich from its experience and growth, Osaka is again hosting a World Expo

The silence An eerie still Observers walk by display after display The walls and carpet are a charcoal black Images of suffering and disaster Incomprehensible pain and lingering loss No more Hiroshima Yells out from the walls A deadening silence yet remains

The silence
An eerie still
Observers walk by display after display
The walls and carpet are a charcoal black
Images of suffering and disaster
Incomprehensible pain and lingering loss
No more Hiroshima
Yells out from the walls
A deadening silence yet remains
