Surprise Guest on Opening Day!
This "SUPER YOHJI YAMAMOTO" photo exhibition is an event born from the friendship between Yohji Yamamoto and Leslie Kee, like an impromptu live performance. The venue will feature works by artists and actors active worldwide, photographed by Leslie wearing Yohji Yamamoto menswear, alongside images of models captured backstage at the Yohji Yamamoto 2013 Spring/Summer collection recently presented in Paris.
On Saturday, September 8th, the opening day of the exhibition, Leslie Kee himself and JUNO, who is active as a singer, model, and actor, and is the older brother of JYJ's Junsu, will be in attendance from 1 PM.
This is the first art exhibition to focus on "The Men of Yohji Yamamoto." T-shirts and bags inspired by the photobook will be sold in limited quantities as a set with Leslie Kee's photobook "SUPER YOHJI YAMAMOTO" at the venue.
