Tokyo Wonder Site Hongo is pleased to be hosting "Imaginary Museum of the O Collection - Magical Museum Tour Room 3 'Kozo Uchida, Hitoshi Kuriyama and Cobra - Imaginary Hotel Magical'".

This exhibition, the continuation of a series launched last year, is composed of works from the Satoshi Okada Collection. Our aim is to provide a permanent venue for works by emerging Japanese contemporary artists, creating a space similar to a permanent exhibition in an art museum.

Room 3 will showcase works by three artists: Kozo Uchida, Hitoshi Kuriyama and Cobra, all successful artists in both solo and group shows in Japan and abroad. The concept is "Imaginary Hotel Magical" Exhibition staged in a room at the "Hotel Magical" into which a character named Voo Doo Daddy O wanders into the year 21XX and ends up staying at. Just what exactly is this mystery-filled hotel? How will it affect the visitors? This show, taking place in a series of rooms at an imaginary museum, will run for approximately six months.

Future installment in Room 4 and other rooms will feature work by Julian Schnabel, Chiezo Taro, Toshiyuki Konishi and Fumiaki Akahane. Don't miss it!
