"Message Illustration to MOE"

　The “PARCO 40th Anniversary” project, which has been held since September 2009, was also the final project of Vol.8. This time, it is a project that allows you to directly touch the charm of hand-drawn because of the rise of the Internet.
This exhibition will finally appear in commemoration of the 30th anniversary of the monthly "MOE" of the "picture book" that you have become familiar with since you were a child and have been fascinated even as an adult. You will surely be fascinated by the power of the original painting. In addition, congratulatory messages from many artists arrive, and it will be a unique opportunity to see them together.
The venue has also been fully operational at two cultural spaces in Shibuya Parco (Palco Factory, Logos Gallery) so that you can see many works.

From Kunio Kato's "Tsumiki no Ie"

　In this exhibition, the original picture book of Kunio Kato of the Academy Award-winning "Tsumiki no Ie", the original picture of Komako Sakai's "Yoruma Christmas Mae no Yoru", and the "Risa and Gaspar" series We will also display a message illustration of Georg Harens Reaven's message to MOE, known not only in Japan. There may be no longer an opportunity for such a writer's original picture to come together.
Please come and see the "Takamono" that you want to keep in the future.
In addition, to commemorate this exhibition, we will also sell duplicate original drawings and commemorative goods that make use of the touch of the original drawings.
In addition, to commemorate the exhibition, we are planning events such as workshops.

The monthly "MOE" celebrated its 30th anniversary in the fall of 2009, including the era of the predecessor magazine "Picture Book and Story". Focusing on popular picture books and character articles, our magazine continues to disseminate information on "cute things", "beautiful things", and "impressable things" that grab the hearts of a wide range of generations, from teens to adult women. I have been.
The basis of MOE's various special articles is picture books from Japan and around the world, which have been carefully crafted with rich colors and selected words at any time for 30 years. From the time of its first publication to the present, countless number of prominent picture book writers have appeared in MOE magazines.
This time, we have planned an exhibition that collects important "Takamono" for 30 years, which has colored MOE magazines, focusing on original picture books with various faces that are valuable and cannot be seen elsewhere. I hope that many people who love picture books, as well as lovely and beautiful things that heal their hearts, will enjoy it.
