Junko Mizuno in Toronto this week!

Hey folks! One of our favourite manga-ka and visual artists, Junko Mizuno, is in Toronto this week for a big show at Narwhal Gallery, and there’s a burlesque after party too! We’re huge fans of Junko from way back, and while this isn’t our event we wanted to make absolutely sure you knew about it! See you there!

Narwhal welcomes Japanese artist Junko Mizuno for Ambrosial Affair, her third Canadian exhibition. As the second body of work in her Food Obsession series, Mizuno takes us on an erotic, psychedelic journey through her world of delightfully dark food fetishes. The exhibition features 20 new pieces of work featuring Mizuno’s voluptuous females appeasing their appetite for all things edible.

JUNKO MIZUNO BURLESQUE AFTERPARTY:
The opening will be followed by a Junko Mizuno inspired Burlesque AfterParty hosted by Red Herring at the Revue Cinema. More information and RSVP. TICKETS: $15 in Advance (and VIP) or $20 at the door. Purchase here
