The magazine 'WERK' is produced through collaborations between art director Tetsuya Chuan and a diverse range of talents, including brands such as Adidas, Comme des Garçons, and Eley Kishimoto; select shops like Colette, Club 21, and Dover Street Market; and creators such as Jan de Cok, Joe Magee, Keiichi Tanaami, and Martine Bebe.
The exhibition 'WERK: WE WORK TOGETHER' will feature issues 21 (featuring Martine Bebe) and 22 (featuring Dover Street Market London's 10th anniversary), released this year, along with limited remaining back issues, merchandise, and silkscreen prints (with editions) produced by '360° Graphics'. It will be held at Daikanyama Tsutaya Books from November 6 (Thursday) to November 26 (Wednesday).
Additionally, on November 11 (Tuesday), Chuan, who will be visiting Japan for this exhibition, will participate in a public dialogue with fashion designer Kunihiko Morinaga, who recently made his Paris Collection debut and returned to Japan. This highly anticipated first meeting between two creators who deeply respect each other will take place.
Furthermore, visitors who bring an exhibition flyer during the event period will receive a special novelty gift at the art counter. We encourage you to take this opportunity to experience the creations of Chuan, a globally recognized talent.
