The Pokémon x Kogei exhibition is coming to the Matsuzakaya Museum of Art in Nagoya from late April to mid-June, and it explores the unique blend of Pokémon with traditional Japanese crafts—a truly one-of-a-kind cultural experience. Organized by the Matsuzakaya Museum of Art, TV Aichi, The Yomiuri Shimbun, and NHK Enterprises Chubu, the event features works from 20 artists, including Living National Treasures and emerging talents, all interpreting Pokémon through the lens of Japanese craftsmanship.
The exhibition will showcase Pokémon-themed pieces across various art forms, including intricate tableware, clothing such as kimonos, and obi fastenings, all reimagined with the colorful and whimsical world of Pokémon. Each artist brings their own style and perspective, allowing visitors to see Pokémon in new and creative ways, from playful depictions to more serious, elegant representations.
This is a ticketed event, with admission priced at 1700 JPY for adults, 1100 JPY for high school and university students, and 600 JPY for elementary and junior high school students. Those below school age receive free admission.
