Tetsuya Noguchi is a Kagawa-born contemporary artist who is renowned for his quirky depictions of traditional samurai in not-so-traditional situations. From samurai on children's playground equipment to samurai holding shopping bags, his unique works have been displayed in a wide variety of exhibitions both here in Japan and abroad.
An upcoming event at Tokyo's Pola Museum of Art Annex will showcase around 40 of Noguchi's works in both 2D and 3D format, including some which have been specifically created for this exhibition.
Admission to the event is free of charge.
