Step into OSAMU GOODS STYLE and discover three major exhibition highlights at once. In line with the exhibition's theme "OSAMU GOODS STYLE," the exhibition takes a lifestyle perspective, presenting not only classic characters beloved by fans over the past 50 years, but also exploring how Osamu Harada integrates design into daily life, shaping a unique "adult-like cuteness," leading the public into Osamu Harada's creative world. ① [OSAMU GOODS STYLE's Lifestyle Proposal] It's not just about visual cuteness, but a lifestyle aesthetic about how to choose objects. This spirit can be seen in the product design: Harada Osamu doesn't simply "print" characters on products, but considers everything from materials, packaging, fonts, color schemes to usage scenarios, so that each item has both functionality and style. ② [Hundreds of classic items fully collected] No need to travel all the way to Japan! The event features over 300 classic design pieces, ranging from stationery and bags to clothing and lifestyle goods, showcasing OSAMU GOODS' product development trajectory across half a century and allowing visitors to fully experience how "adult-friendly cuteness" has entered everyday life. ③ [Precious original manuscripts appear on stage for the first time] The event will showcase rare materials that have never been made public in Taiwan, such as original manuscripts from product development and design and production instructions, revealing how Osamu Harada started with illustrations and extended them to product, packaging and overall visual design to create a lifestyle brand that is deeply rooted in people's hearts. The illustration is taken from the documentary of the past exhibition "Osamu Harada: Finding 'KAWAII'" in Japan. This 50th anniversary special exhibition is a completely new plan, and the on-site content and exhibition format will be adjusted from the past exhibitions.

Against the backdrop of Rembrandt's classic portrait paintings, the exhibition highlights five key aspects: classic works of European painting history spanning six countries, a major collection from the Toledo Museum of Art coming to Taiwan, original works by Rembrandt and Goya on display together, six themed exhibition areas presenting a complete picture of European civilization, and experiencing the profound beauty of classical art through light and shadow. The exhibition opens with an introduction spanning three centuries of European painting history, leading visitors into a world of light, shadow, and humanity. It then presents two main sections: "Painting and Power," focusing on court power and historical painting, showcasing the evolution of visual imagery among royalty and the church; and "Myth and Memory," exploring how European artists reshaped collective memory through ancient civilizations, drawing on classical mythology and historical relics. The exhibition then continues with the remaining four main thematic sections: "Artistic Careers," which explores the operation of the art market and sponsorship mechanisms; "The Beauty of Everyday Life," which presents scenes of daily life in genre paintings from the 17th to the 19th centuries; "Capturing Nature," which showcases natural scenery through landscape and animal paintings; and "European Art in a Global Context," which discusses the impact of colonial trade and global exchange.
