Melt Gallery is proud to present Karan Koron – A Geta Art Exhibition.
Karan Koron – A Geta Art Exhibition is a large-scale group
exhibition curated by none other than Los Angeles and Mexico’s Pioneering
graffiti artist, Galo “Make” Canote, that features over 60 artists:
internationally acclaimed Japanese artists, local and underground artists, and
legendary graffiti artists.

Each artist will customize a pair of getas. Getas are a traditional Japanese footwear worn with traditional Japanese clothing such as kimono or yukata. “Karan Koron”, the title of
the show, is the distinctive "clacking" sound made while walking with getas.
Karan Koron is often mentioned as one of the sounds the older Japanese miss
the most in modern life.

Karan Koron is an amazing opportunity to view and purchase custom works by more than 60
world-renowned artists. In an attempt to combine the eastern and western world
of artistry, over 60 original pairs of getas will be painted, sculpted, carved,
and drawn on by contemporary artists highly recognized in the art industry
today. The artists range from emerging artists, local and underground artists
from Japan, LA and Mexico, legendary graffiti artists, to students and lecturers
of Musachino Art University in Japan.


Don’t sleep this one out.
