Sweet Streets: Art Inspired by Japanese Street Fashion

Gallery Nucleus is excited to be hosting “SWEET STREETS,” a fanciful exhibition that will take inspiration from the Japanese fashion subculture. 

Rather than follow trends, the youth of Japan have blazed a fashion movement.  By mixing old with the new while customizing and combining the homemade with designer labels, their looks result in the unexpected and avant-garde.  Art-inspired fashions and fashion-inspired art is one of the most creative symbiotic relationships of our generation. Co-curated by CARO and sponsored by Hi-Fructose magazine, a talented roster of artists will contribute to this event in celebrating imagination and originality.

!!!THIS JUST IN: Artist Yuki Miyazaki will be performing a live painting Opening Night. The artwork will go for auction and bidding will end Tuesday, September 1 2009. Winner will be notified via email.
