Orient Industry 40th Anniversary: Love Doll

Founded in 1977 as a manufacturer of mannequins and 'speciality' dolls, the Ueno-based Orient Industry has narrowed its focus quite a bit over the years, and now deals exclusively in high-grade 'love dolls'. To celebrate the company's 40th anniversary, president and founder Hideo Tsuchiya now brings his finest creations out from the basement and onto the glisteningly white premises of Shibuya gallery Atsukobarouh. You'll be able to stare at man-made women of all shapes and sizes, including some of Orient's early, less than polished models, and the dolls shot by photographer Kishin Shinoyama for his most recent show.
