SUGI POP!!!

Popular tokidoki artist and creator, Simone Legno, joins a roster of cool and popular POP artists for an Exhibition going on (in the USA!) right now thru the 16th of January 2011.... Other artists participating in the exhibition are Artists in this exhibition include: Takashi Murakami, Yoshitomo Nara, Hokusai, Kuniyoshi, KAWS, Mike Shinoda of Linkin Park, ...and MANY more! The exhibition is entitled SUGI POP -- "Sugi" is Japanese for "too much" which plays on the sometime over the top art these talented artists creates... The above mentioned talented artists integrate influences from anime and manga, graffiti street art, and consumer culture to create the newest phenomenon this exhibition dubs: SugiPOP!. This multi-media exhibition includes painting, drawing, sculpture, video, and original artwork used to make anime films and manga comics. Am pretty sure that this exhibition will WOW crowds of all ages. I only wish I could fly out to view them all in person.
