In the middle of the 90’s, a 14-year-old girl with long blonde pigtails set out to save our universe from total annihilation as Sailor Moon, the beautiful warrior who fights evil by moonlight.
In July, Japan celebrated the 20th anniversary of the release of this world-famous manga written by Naoko Takeuchi, with an animated reboot called “Sailor Moon Crystal".
In September, Lucia (Kitsune Art) and Alberto Alpo Polita invited more than 90 artists from all over the world to draw their personal view of the Sailor soldiers and set up an exhibition for Treviso Comic Book Festival 2014 called MOON PRIDE, a unique non-profit 'from fans to fans' Tribute Art Show.
After the terrific success in Treviso (Italy) MOON PRIDE had a second edition in November, in LONDON during Hyper Japan Christmas Market.
This is a glimpse on both exhibitions.
