From October 19th (Sat) to November 4th (Mon), 2024, "Daisuke Obana -Record of Distress" will be held at PARCO MUSEUM TOKYO, Shibuya PARCO 4F and PARCO MUSEUM TOKYO.

This exhibition is an installation exhibition that traces the roots of Daisuke Obana, the designer of Japan's leading fashion brand "N.HOOLYWOOD", which will be celebrating its 25th anniversary next year. The event has been decided to commemorate the release of the commemorative book "Record of Pain" (Park Publishing). In the era of the vintage shop "go-getter" where Obana was involved in launching in his early 20s, we will display photographs of used clothes purchased while visiting about 3,000 parts of the United States, as well as maps actually used.

A large number of photographs that were ordered by a teacher and continued to take every day with an instant camera without seeing the purpose and goal. GPS is a map that wrote the supplier until midnight when there was no car navigation system. This exhibition is an installation that proves that these photographs and maps have been a valuable record of Obana's half-life after more than 25 years, and that it was a special experience. Please experience it at the venue.

At the venue, in addition to pre-sale of the book "Record of Pain" (PARCO Publishing), in addition to official merchandise limited to the venue, N.HOOLYWOOD's military collection line "N.HOOLYWOOD TEST PRODUCT EXCHANGE SERVICE" also appeared limited edition. In addition, a limited-time shop for "go-getter" will be opened in PARCO MUSEUM TOKYO, and vintage items collected by Obana will be specially sold.

■Profile

Daisuke Obana

N.HOOLYWOOD designer

Born in 1974 in Kanagawa Prefecture. He gained experience in a used clothing store since high school, and then served as a buyer and shop manager at a famous store in Harajuku. Opened "go-getter", a select shop for used clothes that was involved in launching in 1996. During the vintage boom, he selects used clothes with strong design from the 70s and 80s and creates a number of movements. I began to question the value of the used clothes world that "the old and the better the condition, the more valuable it is," and started remakes and original development in the store.

In 2000, the shop "Mister hollywood" opened in Harajuku to develop it in earnest. The following year, the brand "N.HOOLYWOOD" was established. After presenting his first collection at the club in 2002, he participated in the Tokyo Collection. From 2010, he moved his presentation to the NY collection.

In addition to working on the brand N.HOOLYWOOD, he has been active worldwide in a wide range of creations, including supervising uniforms, security, and workforce designs for the Torch Relay of the Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
