This exhibition, planned to welcome the 100th anniversary of its founding, focuses on the Bauhaus as a school. In addition to introducing the contents of lessons conducted by teachers such as Kandinsky and Klee, as part of the first basic educational classes newly enrolled students would receive, we’ll display approximately 300 items such as educational accomplishments and materials from the studios (metalwork, pottery, textiles, furniture, printing and advertisements, stage, architecture, etc.) to which students would proceed after completing their basic education. We’ll also introduce you to the connection between the Bauhaus and Japan, through the collection of work and materials from four Japanese exchange students: Mizutani Takehiko, Yamawaki Iwao, Yamawaki Michiko, and Ono Tamae.

  • Japanese Animation Guide: the History of Robot Anime
    Commissioned by Japan's Agency for Cultural Affairs Manga, Animation, Games, and Media Art Information Bureau Japanese Animation Guide: The History of Robot Anime Compiled by Mori Building Co., Ltd. 2013 Commissioned by Japan's Agency for Cultural Affairs Manga, Animation, Games, and Media Art Information Bureau Japanese Animation Guide: The History of Robot Anime Compiled by Mori Building Co., Ltd. 2013 Addition to the Release of this Report This report on robot anime was prepared based on information available through 2012, and at that time, with the exception of a handful of long-running series (Gundam, Macross, Evangelion, etc.) and some kiddie fare, no original new robot anime shows debuted at all. But as of today that situation has changed, and so I feel the need to add two points to this document. At the start of the anime season in April of 2013, three all-new robot anime series debuted. These were Production I.G.'s “Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet," Sunrise's “Valvrave the Liberator," and Dogakobo and Orange's “Majestic Prince of the Galactic Fleet." Each was broadcast in a late-night timeslot and succeeded in building fanbases. The second new development is the debut of the director Guillermo Del Toro's film “Pacific Rim," which was released in Japan on August 9, 2013. The plot involves humanity using giant robots controlled by human pilots to defend Earth’s cities from gigantic “kaiju.” At the end of the credits, the director dedicates the film to the memory of “monster masters” Ishiro Honda (who oversaw many of the “Godzilla” films) and Ray Harryhausen (who pioneered stop-motion animation techniques.) The film clearly took a great deal of inspiration from Japanese robot anime shows.
