"EXPRESSION AND APPRECIATION" ART TEXTBOOK

We have some wonderful news today. Kabuki, our first collaboration ukiyo-e with KISS, will be featured in Expression and Appreciation, an art textbook that will be used by middle schools nationwide.
The ukiyo-e is included in the “Prints” section, and the textbook itself will be used for a total of 4 years, starting April 1, 2021 through March 31, 2025.
We are honored to be part of a national education program, and it would mean the world to us if our works can help inspire future generations in the slightest way.

"NEW JAPANESE AESTHETICS: MANGA CREATION" EXHIBITION

Our ukiyo-e illustrated by Masumi Ishikawa will be on show at the exhibition New Japanese Aesthetics: Manga Creation, hosted by Hankyu Umeda Department Store.
The seven prints featuring KISS, Iron Maiden, and David Bowie will be exhibited alongside works by legendary manga artists such as Tezuka Osamu (author of Astro Boy), and Koyama Chuya (author of Space Brothers). As ukiyo-e are considered to be the origin of the manga we know today, we are thrilled for our contemporary ukiyo-e to be exhibited together with the works of such iconic artists.
Please drop by if you are in the area.

Exhibition period: March 24 - April 5
Time: 10:00 - 20:00 (closes at 18:00 on the final day)
Place: Hankyu Umeda Department Store, 9F Art Stage (Osaka, Japan)
