There are a few things normally associated with summer in Japan, wind chimes, fireflies, mosquito-repellent, shaved ice and goldfish. Instead of watching the goldfish die in the heat, this pop up aquarium in Nihonbashi Mitsui Hall allows you to watch thousands of goldfish in various exhibits in the comfort of air-conditioned surroundings.
*The exhibition runs until the 24th September 2012 and is open from 11am to 7pm, see more images on Spoon Tomago
I’m not even sure if this would be called a painting or a sculpture, they are 3 dimensional paintings by Riusuke Fukahori, When I watched the video below, my mouth literally fell open. I could never hope to be this creative with paints and resin. I actually showed my colleague and we were arguing about whether the fish were real. I was convinced they were!
Riusuke Fukahori is a Japanese artist that has his work displayed at the ICN gallery in London, the Galerie an der Pinakothek der Moderne, Munich and the Gallery IDF in Aichi, Japan.
