The Harajuku exhibition that closed in June is now reaching two more cities with free admission and new artwork, extending the event's run through late November.
Reporting from 1 source: PANORA.
Illustrator and VTuber Shigure Ui's exhibition "Uitopia" will tour to two cities. The Kyoto edition opens September 4 at IP Bookstore and runs through September 29, and the Fukuoka edition opens October 24 at Animate Lacic Fukuoka Tenjin through November 29. Both venues show part of the original exhibition free of charge, sell official goods, and display six new A2 Aurora Art reproduction paintings sold by web lottery at 98,000 yen each.
The original "Uitopia" ran from May to June at 6142 in Harajuku, built around the concept of "Shigure Ui's computer" and covering her illustration, streaming, music, and live work. The touring version trims the display to a free mini exhibition at each stop.
The Kyoto edition runs September 4-29 at IP Bookstore, where a 3,000 yen purchase earns a random Japanese-style bookmark in one of three designs. The Fukuoka edition runs October 24 through November 29 at Animate Lacic Fukuoka Tenjin. Each venue shows six new A2 Aurora Art reproduction paintings, sold only through web lottery at 98,000 yen per piece.
Animate stores nationwide will hold a related fair from autumn, and an X repost campaign gives away four signed copies of the official catalog, two per venue.
