Miffy Exhibition [Matsuya Ginza]

[Dimini ☆ Cricket] April 17, 2015 14:00

From April 15th, the "Miffy Exhibition" commemorating the 60th anniversary of the birth has been held at Matsuya Ginza in Ginza 3-chome.

It is an event square on the 8th floor of Matsuya Ginza.

Miffy was created 60 years ago by Dick Bruna, a picture book writer born in Utrecht, the Netherlands. By the way, the name in my home country Netherlands is "Ninece Prus" (surprisingly).

To date, more than 120 picture books have been published and translated into about 50 languages worldwide, making them more than 85 million copies of long-selling books.

In this exhibition, Bruna's early works, original drawings, sketches, etc. are exhibited.

Bruna's creative scenery was also shown in the video.

In addition, the original picture of "First Miffy" ("Sasako-chan" (first edition) drawn for the first time in 1955 was released for the first time in the world.

In addition, from the 60th anniversary project "Miffy Art Parade", a 180-cm-high statue of Miffy, designed by 15 Japanese creators, has been unveiled for the first time. One of them is on display at the entrance.

I think it's a good exhibition that everyone can warm up, not to mention Miffy lovers, so when you come to Ginza, please drop in and there are plenty of sales corners for goods.

The last day of this exhibition is May 10 (Sun).
