NIGO: From Japan with Love
NIGO: From Japan with Love marks the first museum retrospective of Japanese creative director NIGO to be presented outside Japan, tracing a 30-year career from Harajuku to a global context. Bringing together more than 700 objects, it includes a reconstruction of his teenage bedroom, rare designs, hand-thrown ceramics, and a full-scale glass tea house, reflecting influences that range from vintage Americana and hip-hop to traditional Japanese craft and 1980s Tokyo.
Spanning fashion, music, and design, the presentation situates his work within broader cultural shifts, from founding A Bathing Ape in the 1990s to his current role at KENZO. Through personal archives and a network of collaborators, it outlines a practice that moves across disciplines while shaping the relationship between streetwear and luxury fashion.
