Toy Art Gallery will celebrate 2 years of art toy shows, exclusives and more at its Melrose location (4 years total) with its 2013 Anniversary show opening on Saturday (9.13). This year’s anniversary show will feature a Pollen Kaiser custom show featuring over 50 artist interpretations of Paul Kaiju’s sofubi figure. Since the sofubi tradition often emphasizes hand-painted figures by the creator rather than by others, this is a rare chance to see a variety of visions of Paul’s towering toy.
