Noritake Suzuki: "Dai-Pinchi Exhibition!"

About this event

The "Dai-Pinchi Exhibition!", where visitors can experience the world of the popular picture book series "Dai-Pinchi Zukan" by picture book author Noritake Suzuki, is coming to Kagoshima. In this exhibition, various "pinches" (tight spots/crisis situations) that appear in the picture books are brought to three-dimensional life, presenting the world's first (?) "Pinch Entertainment" where visitors can enter the world of pinches, contemplate pinches, and sometimes even dive headfirst into pinches. Under the motto "If you find the fun in it, your world expands", everyone from children to adults can enjoy relatable "pinches" packed with humor. Everyday "pinches"—such as spilled milk, a cake about to topple over, or dog poop—are enlarged, and creative ways to overcome these situations through play have been devised. The venue is packed with displays where visitors can experience "pinches" with all five senses, including laughing off accidentally generated pinches at the "Dai-Pinchi Bar", enjoying combinations of pinches at the "Dai-Pinchi Blocks", and experiencing being right in the middle of a scene where milk is spilled just like in the picture book. Many exhibition-original merchandise items will also be on sale, allowing visitors to bring home "Pinch Entertainment".
