The 2008 Vader Project

Referencing one of pop-cultures most iconic super villains, The Vader Project recruits the world’s leading artists to each re-appropriate Darth Vader’s conventional black helmet into an art piece of their own. Recently touching down in Japan, over 10 regional artists including Bounty Hunter, T9G, Secret Base, Usugrow and DEVILROBOTS were all in participation alongside the other 90-some designs from around the world. The exhibition is part of Japan’s 30th anniversary Star Wars Celebration Japan taking place at Makuhari-Messe in Chiba, just outside Tokyo which runs from July 19th to the 21st.
