Kyoto-born Atsuhiko Misawa is one of Japan's most prominent contemporary wood carving artists, and one of his major works is the "Animals" series which he started back in 2000. The collection of life-sized animals has proven extremely popular with both the young and the young at heart, and they will be displayed at Osaka's Abeno Harukas Art Museum from November 21st through to January 17th 2021.
As the museum is located on the 16th floor of the Abeno Harukas building, it presents an opportunity to enjoy these wood carvings in unique surroundings. Adult admission to the event is 1400 yen.
