The guest for the 48th Oyako Day Online Talk Live is Kazuko Koike, one of Japan’s most influential creative directors.
Koike began her career writing copy for the Seibu Saison Group before becoming an associate curator at the newly established Seibu Museum of Art. She later played a key role in the founding of MUJI in 1980 and went on to establish and direct Sagacho Exhibit Space, becoming a leading figure in Japan’s cultural and design communities.
It was during those formative years that Bruce Osborn, newly arrived in Japan, first met Kazuko Koike.
