Art Man Japan "Love My Job, Love My Town"
Closes in 14 days
At Kume Press Room
Media: Graphics, Sculpture, Fashion
Art Man Japan, a young group of butsudan (Buddhist altar) craftsmen from Mikawa, will exhibit their T-shirt designs at this exhibition entitled "Love My Job, Love My Town." While employing traditional techniques of butsudan making, this collective creates a completely new type of work, transcending the notion of religion that altars are often associated with. Their work has been picked up by magazines, newspapers, and TV programs, netting them much publicity and making their novel take on butsudans something of a sensation. In addition to 10 T-shirts designed by them, this exhibition also presents "Budan" and "Art Man Doll," initial works that made them popular.
*The space is closed during the Golden Week holidays.
