Parco Japan 40th Anniversary Xmas Art Cans

Parco, the Japanese department store chain with an iconic presence in Shibuya and other parts of Tokyo, has been around for 40 years. That’s a long time, so what are they doing to celebrate their anniversary? How about commissioning 40 artists, Japanese fashion labels, bands, and designers – including Tsumori Chisato, Bearbrick, Liz Lisa, Blythe, Rip Slyme, Moussy & X-Girl – to create limited edition drink cans with “Parco 40″ artwork? Sound a little strange? It is, but in a good way.

Here are some of those participating in this project:
Fashion Brands: Tsumori Chisato, Moussy, Ne-Net, Mercibeaucoup, Liz Lisa, X-Large, X-Girl, Tommy, and more.
Artists: Rip Slyme, GROOVISIONS, Miura Jun, Saruhage, Rieko Saibara, Yanai Michihiko, Nancy Seki, and more.
Characters: Bearbrick, Blythe, Golden Eggs, Detroit Metal City, Sento-kun, and more.
