Toy Karma 2: Art Inspired by Classic Japanese Toys

Opening September 5, 7-10pm, the second-ever Toy Karma exhibit features original art and customized toys by artists from all over the world!

The exhibit runs through September 20. Rotofugi Gallery is open on Saturdays, 12-4pm, or by appointment.

What is Toy Karma? Well, in our case, it’s an art exhibit featuring artists expressing their love for classic Japanese toys. But it’s so much more than that. As Mark Nagata, founder of Max Toy Company and curator of this exhibit explains on his blog, it’s the idea that if you’re honest in your dealings that one toy that you’ve always dreamed of getting will eventually come to you. For many serious toy collectors it’s a guideline, a mantra and yes, even a lifestyle. This exhibit pays homage to the mysterious force and power that toys have over us.
