The exhibition “Artist Friends who Love Cats”, which started at the Kobe Kitano Museum of Art, will be held in Kitano Ijinkan-gai again this year.
This year’s exhibition venue will be held at six locations, and Ellie Iguchi’s solo exhibition will be held at Kitano Rose Garden, the first participating venue.
This year as well, “Kanashiki Debu Neko-chan Maru”, who has been serialized in the Kobe Shimbun, will be coming to Hotel Kitano Plaza Rokkoso on the 24th. Commemorative photos can be taken!
Reika Izumi’s solo exhibition and Kanyancreate’s solo exhibition will be held here.
In the drawing room of the Rhine House, there will be a sold-out exhibition of popular artists’ collections, and in the main exhibition venue, Bricolage, there will also be an exhibition of new works by Yu Sasaki for the first time in four years!
This year, there are a total of 40 “Artist Friends who Love Cats”
Please look forward to the works filled with cat love that are getting stronger every year.
This year, we are also accepting donations at the main venue.
The entire amount received will be donated to the “Reiwa 6 Noto Peninsula Earthquake Animal Control Headquarters”.
