Night at the museum
Finally I could go to the exhibition
"American Pop Art - From the John and Kimiko Powers Collection".
I wish the space were a bit bigger
so that we could see big art works from a distance.
but, hey, the collection is stunning !
I appreciate we can see such a great show here in Tokyo.
They are open till 20:00 on Fridays.
and then, we went to the museum shop.
They have a great selection.
I highly recommend you visit here, and
I myself must come back to find some gifts!
For today, I got this hanky embroidered with NY icons.

bear, I guess
I went to ME ME ME for lunch and
enjoyed yummy French toast.
They have gotten this pin made by itomono, and I guess it's a bear.
I couldn't help but fall in love with this guy.
He is available at ME ME ME.
Run to get him !!

Red Glove
This was actually the first time to go to MOMAT
and the Craft Gallery.
I really wanted to see the " Red Glove" on the banner.
by Yoichi Onagi (1976)
It's weaving and HUGE.
I believe it's worth to go even if the outside is more than 90F !
go both MOMAT and Craft Gallery - 650yen,
only the Gallery - 200yen. (As of today)
The exhibition "Body³" 〜Sep.1

Miroco Machiko
I didn't know about her at all until I watched a documentary on TV.
Miroco Machiko
She seems just a pretty girl whom I could see everywhere in Tokyo.
But when I saw her painting the first time, I was blown away.
The energy.
I'd love to see the original.

the latest stamps
the latest 80yen stamp sheet design - Chihiro Iwasaki
先日郵便局に行ったとき、一番新しい切手シートデザインが
いわさきちひろさんの水彩画なのに気づきました。
彼女の絵のテーマはつねに、こどもの幸せと平和でした。
わたしが子供の頃、誕生日のたびに叔母が毎年かならず
彼女の挿絵の入った絵本や画集を一冊づつ、
プレゼントしてくれたのを覚えています。
そういえば、黒柳徹子さんの
「窓ぎわのトットちゃん」の挿絵も彼女でしたね。
