TAKARABUNE ART SHOW OPENING ON DECEMBER 17TH!

My second Japan-themed art show is beginning in LA on December 17th!

TAKARABUNE by Junko Mizuno
December 17, 2016 - January 8, 2017
Opening Reception / Dec 17, 6:00PM - 9:00PM
at Gallery Nucleus

"A solo exhibition of Junko Mizuno's latest work, this series continues her exploration of pop and spiritual aspects of Japanese culture with an emphasis on the Seven Lucky Gods. Traditionally six males and one female, Junko has depicted them as an all female ensemble of deities."

The opening reception on 17th will feature a seven-person performance piece titled, The Dance of the Seven Lucky Gods featuring handmade masks by Alston Stephanus Accessories that are inspired by my Takarabune painting (shown above), all set to the sounds of traditional Japanese live music. This one-time-only performance is not to be missed!

FREE admission, all ages welcomed
FREE drinks and hors d'oeuvres will be available for attendees.
*Please RSVP through eventbrite to reserve a position for the live performance.
