Tsukiji TASS Gallery Wakamatsuya Shogo Nakatsuji Exhibition

[Silver] April 24, 2013 19:00

 A Color & Color 2 exhibition is being held at Wakamatsuya in Tsukiji 6-chome, familiar.

The period is from 4/22 to 4/27, 2013.

The writer, Shogo Nakatsuji, lives in Kachidoki and has a picture of Kachidokibashi, but since ancient times I have loved Kabukiza, and I have heard that he drew emotions rather than the scenery. The atmosphere of the picture is round with no corners, and the color is warm. He studied graphic art at university, worked for a major advertising company, and has been exhibited at numerous art exhibitions.

This time, we will exhibit a wonderful collection of works related to Chuo-ku.

 Today, I would like to introduce the works exhibited in the window glass on the way to work and the works that attracted them.

 The first is Kachidokibashi, the home of Shogo Nakatsuji.

 

CIMG1674.jpgAnd the old Kabukiza Theater that Nakatsuji loved all the time.


The scenery of Ginza 4-chome Wako and Ginza Mitsukoshi is also bright, warm and soft.

 

 A landscape of a leisurely holiday in a pedestrian paradise in Ginza, and a mother and daughter smiling at Ricoh's Ring Cube. It's a pleasure to be able to appreciate the fine depiction! This kind of depiction loves the actual picture, and "Oh, it's really nice! "The one who wants you to be impressed is the person who understands art. Indeed, it is a wonderful group of works that use bright colors, warm your heart and calm down.

 Have you been living a long life recently? Why don't you aim for a relaxed and round life?

"Tsukiji Spring Festival" is held from April 27 to May 3.

[Apricot peony] April 24, 2013 14:00

The Spring Festival in Tsukiji Outer Market has become an annual event.
This year is an enlarged version of the Golden Week from April 27 to May 3, partly due to the 750th anniversary of Shinran Saints in Honganji Temple.
ck1203_1304231.jpg
First of all, for the three days from April 27 to 29, "750 Square" appears on the precincts of Honganji Temple!

A large collection of local gourmets from Iwate, Miyagi, Fukushima and neighboring prefectures of Tokyo.
Local characters will also be gathered.

In the out-of-market market, the “750 Fair” will be held from April 27 to May 2.
Special items are packed, and luxurious products are won by lottery for every 1,000 yen receipt.


And I was waiting on May 3rd! "Half price market".

vk1203_1304232.jpg

The gem of each store's specialty is a half price, you can't sell it.
This half price market is expected to be very crowded.

I will teach you the unique techniques of the local area.
①The half price market starts at 10 o'clock, so before that, get a list of half price items of each store and a flyer of a map.

②Check the flyer and prioritize the items you want to buy.
→Most of them are limited in quantity, so they line up from stores that are likely to disappear soon.
Egg-yaki "Matsuro" is very popular, so if you do other shopping, it may be sold out.

③A hurry → The narrow roads are crowded, so it may be faster to go around the other side of Harumi-dori St. or Shin-ohashi-dori St.

④If you want to take a break, go to Tsukiji River Park or Higashiginza. → There are few places where you can sit down and calm down in the market, so if the weather is nice, go to Tsukiji River Park in Hongan Teraura.
It is a calm place where the bustle of the market is like a lie, with a lot of greenery and birds singing.
Also, if you walk 5-6 minutes, Higashiginza is home to the hottest spot Kabukiza, and there are a number of cafes and restaurants around the area where you can slowly settle down.

stamp rally commemorating the 50th anniversary of Higashi-Ginza Station is also being held.

I'll have to go to Tsukiji during Golden Week!

2013.4.17-5.6 At Matsuya Ginza 8F Event Square

"Snoopy x Japanese Artisan Exhibition" is being held.


This is the first exhibition in which "Snoopy" and "Japanese Takumi" collaborate.


Kutani porcelain, Wajima Nuri, Arita porcelain, pearls, glyph art, Yuzen dyeing, Japanese paper, folding screens, etc.

All of them are so wonderful that they can be surprised. I looked at each work to see if it would be like this.


There is also a sale of original goods, and it is quite crowded and it can be seen as popular.

It was an exhibition of my eyes. Why don't you take a look at it?
