There is a room where is only permitted to take pictures, and we’ve found that Kaneda’s red motorbike is displayed.
We had very good time to see his handwriting pictures and drawings which are very very gorgeous.
It would certainly be worth it!

I went to the exhibition “MY WAY” at Hara Museum , by Jean-Michel Othoniel.
His art work of huge or gigantic and sensitive Venetian glass makes me sentimental, felt like heartrending but happy.
A french little girl loves this beautiful bed, she stared this, went to the room again and again… so cute.

I went to see the henri toulouse-lautrec Exhibition at the Mitsubishi Ichigokan Museum in Marunouchi.
The Mitsubishi Ichigokan Museum is a red brick building, constructed as a Mitsubishi office 117 years ago. It reopened as an art museum in the spring of last year.
The weather was nice on this day, so I strolled leisurely through the vast garden. Near the art museum, there are a lot of interesting shops and stylish cafes like PASS THE BATON and Cath Kidston, so it’s a great place to while away your day off.

I visited the Ohnuma Michiyuki pottery Exhibition, now open at shima-shima-ya Tokyo in Shimokitazawa. Mr.Ohnuma is a ceramic artist from Iwate Prefecture.
Cute dot-patterned or deep green bowls are characteristic of his works. This time a very beautiful jet-black bowl that glimmered with gold here and there in the light was displayed as well.
Each of them were splendid blows and looked user-friendly.

I went to Design Festa this year again.
So many artist shows their artistic activity.
I love the penguin made from needle felt and wood…
It walks, flaps wings, and makes bows!
