Japanese East-side and West-side Graf Event!

Tuesday, December 4th, 2007

If you haven’t already gotten the word, there is an art event coming up this month you have to check out! Only minutes away from the Chopstick Horie Shop on Nagahori Dori, Graffiti masters Esow of Tokyo and Casper of Osaka will be holding a joint gallery event on Saturday, December 22nd!

If you’ve spent any amount of time shopping around Minami you may already be inadvertantly familiar with Casper’s work. From CD covers, jackets, shirts and caps to full size shutters and maybe even your girlsfriend’s chest at a live painting event - Casper’s distinct and unique lettering style is everywhere! Both of these graf virtuosos will be combining forces to create an all new body of work here in Kansai’s own backyard!!

The reception party kicks off at 6:00 with DJs Very and TakeTHC on the 13th floor of the Ai Office Building (yeah, they do have 13th floors here! Directions below) - Come out and see Japanese subculture at it’s best through the eyes of Kansai and Kanto’s unique and highly evolved grafitti masters!

For those folks aborad or otherwise who can’t make it, the gallery will be on display for one month (Until Monday, January 22nd)
