Mr., a leading figure of Japan’s Superflat and Neo-Pop movements, presents his first solo exhibition in Kaohsiung — a vibrant, immersive world shaped by the wide-eyed innocence and exuberant energy of anime-inspired characters. With imagery that feels both playful and uncanny, he blurs dimensional boundaries and invites visitors into a universe built from ‘ultimate cuteness’ and uninhibited imagination.
Since the mid-1990s, Mr. has helped redefine contemporary Japanese art by channeling into his work otaku culture and the atmosphere of 1980s Japan, an era steeped in manga, anime, and emerging subcultures. Curated by Kenji Kudo, director of the Tagawa City Museum of Art, the exhibition features around 70 works, including large-scale paintings, sculptures, and early receipt graffiti.
