This feature explores the current state of Akira Minagawa, the designer of "minä perhonen," a brand celebrating its 30th anniversary this year. In November 2025, the Setagaya Museum will host the exhibition "tsugu minä perhonen." The approximately six years since the 2019 exhibition "minä perhonen / Akira Minagawa tsuzuku" have been a period of change for Minagawa. He has entrusted the position of brand representative to the next generation, focusing on design work while expanding his creative activities to include personal artwork. This feature delves into the present of Akira Minagawa as an individual artist, through interviews and on-site reports from his creative work. I have read this several times since purchasing it. It is in excellent condition with no noticeable damage, but please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned about the condition. *Will be shipped in simple packaging.
