Art can be cute and cute can be art at Japan House’s latest exhibit, which shows the history and artistry behind the uniquely Japanese concept of “kawaii.” Translating literally to “cute” or “adorable,” the idea has exploded into a movement that touches on art, technology, and fashion. The gallery partnered with artist Sebastian Masuda to create a space and series of events capturing kawaii in all forms. The show will be on view until Nov. 3.
