    The “Little Pink” exhibition — read about it here — is now on at Cafe Pause, and runs until Sunday (April 26). Update: Looks like we’re going to have a reception tomorrow night (Thursday, April 23) at the cafe with Shantell and Gelman for the show. I’ll post more details soon, but please join us…

    Bianca may have left Tokyo for Kyoto, but she didn’t leave before finishing one last project: “The Way Home from the Station.” As she explains: To say goodbye to Tokyo, I re-photographed a picture sequence “the way home from the station”, which I took at the beginning of my time in Tokyo and paired the…

    Tokyo Art Beat has just launched two fresh new tees for your buying pleasure — remember, all proceeds go to help support the site. On the left is “Modularly Yours” by Ian Lynam — which I promptly ordered — and on the right “White Discharge” by Teppei Kaneuji. It’s interesting to note that TAB is…

    Starting tomorrow (April 21), Cafe Pause is hosting the “Little Pink” exhibition, a collaboration between Alexander Gelman and Shantell Martin. It’s a fun project: Shantell drew over — or as she would say, “bombed” — 100 flyers that were produced for Gelman’s “Little Black” installation at the Nanzuka Underground gallery back in 2007. Here’s a…

    How’s this for a QR barcode! Produced by Tokyo-based creative agency SET, it was put together to promote the ongoing collaborations between LV and Takashi Murakami. I’m pretty sure it’s the first time I see a stylized code like this, and I’m quite surprised that it actually works.

    After that last post, I just realized I hadn’t put photos from KDa‘s opening for their retrospective exhibition at Gallery MA. It’s a great show — love the use of those blinking signs — and well worth making the short trek from Tokyo Midtown. It runs until June 6.

    OK Fred‘s Gorilla Store #3 is now over, but I still wanted to put up a few photos from the space, featuring Malin Baumann‘s items. Really loved the graphic patterns seen on the badges above — each one represents a letter from the alphabet. I’m hoping she follows through with what she told me and…
