Misawa Atsuhiko ANIMALS in graf
graf media gm is proud to present “ANIMALS in graf” by sculptor Atsuhiko Misawa from Dec 1, 2007 thru Jan 20, 2008. After a chance meeting with Misawa at "Yoshitomo Nara+graf A to Z", a large-scale art project we took part in Hirosaki, Aomori prefecture in October 2006, we had the chance to collaborat in April 2007, by building a hut for his polar bear sculpture under the name YNG (Yoshitomo Nara+graf) for his "Misawa Atsuhiko ANIMALS+" exhibition at the Hiratsuka Museum of Art. Now, coinciding with "Misawa Atsuhiko ANIMALS+", graf media gm will present the other side of the exhibition through his other works and drawings.
