Fantasy figure art collective "corse" holds solo exhibition at Diesel

Nov 17, 2014

Diesel Art Gallery in Shibuya, Tokyo, will be hosting "Voyages," a solo exhibition by the German artist collective corse, from November 21st through February 13th.

Corse, a duo consisting of Mark Landwehr and Sven Waschke, has recently won the Cannes Lions, one of the world's three major advertising awards. This year, they achieved the remarkable feat of winning three awards at the Designer Toy Awards 2014. Their works, sculpted from wood, synthetic resin, and vinyl, are characterized by sharp edges and smooth curves. The fictional stories explore deep human emotions, such as the loss of friendship and purity, and the potential for revenge.

Kors, known as a maverick in the world of figure art, is best known for his "Noop World" series, which embodies his unique worldview. The series explores the themes of love and hate on a fictional planet, telling the story of a mysterious creature called a Noop, who seeks the love of animals.

The exhibition will also feature works from their latest series, "Souls Gone Mad." This series features a ferocious monster, a cautious owl, and a depressed girl on a ship, joined by a young boy. It depicts the boy's loss of innocence and the death and cruelty that awaits him in the future.

In addition, Kors will be holding a signing session from 6:00 PM on November 21st. A special Japan-only version of "Omen," the owl-like character from "Souls Gone Mad," will also be available for purchase at the exhibition.
