eitoeiko is pleased to announce the exhibition 'Beleza Universal' by Jun Shirasu, from 17 April to 23 May, 2010.

Beleza Universal is a study of contemporary women. The project starts with a question, 'Is Miss Universe is an universal designed woman?'. Today the status of women looks better than it used to be. But despite of the development of society, we lost something in history. That is a sacredness of women, the artist thinks. Jun Shirasu(b.1965) makes a contemporary goddess by azulejos. Beleza Universal is also a resurrection of the holiness of art.

The exhibition is supported by Portugal embassy and Societe Luso Nipponica.

Jun Shirasu joins with the special group exhibition of Portugal embassy at GYRE Omotesando, from 15 to 23 May, 2010.
