CowParade Tokyo in Marunouchi 2006

Marunouchi Building
Finished
In the summer of 1998, local artists from Zurich, Switzerland painted 400 glass fibre sculptures of cows (life size) and exhibited them all over the city. The cows attracted many sponsors and donations, and by the end of the exhibition the number of cows had doubled. Since then, the cow parade has gained worldwide interest.
In 2006, the parade will tour 8 cities in 6 countries including the US and UK. Here in Marunouchi, Tokyo, 64 cows painted by 60 artists, students from 2 junior high schools in Chiyoda Ward, plus 2 other participants will be displayed, sponsored by 10 companies. The cows are 7 feet long and 2 feet wide. A competition and auction will also be held. Judges include graphic designer Shin Matsunaga, playwright Amon Miyamoto etc.
