During Anime Expo (July 1 – July 5), fans will have the chance to experience BLEACH like never before.

Timed to Anime Expo and the upcoming premiere of BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War – The Calamity, the BLEACH LA: The Artist Collective Artist Gallery transforms Los Angeles’ Japanese American Cultural & Community Center into an immersive celebration of one of anime’s most influential franchises.

Headlined by a striking original portrait inspired by Captain Shunsui Kyoraku from internationally acclaimed artist Audrey Kawasaki, highlights include Tokidoki founder Simone Legno’s signature kawaii interpretation of fan-favorite characters, Yoskay Yamamoto’s ethereal take on Rukia, Jasper Wong’s original portraits of Soi Fon and Captain Unohana, Greg Mike’s vibrant abstract reimagining of Grimmjow and Nel, and McFlyy’s streetwear-inspired tribute to the series’ iconic heroes. The exhibition also features works by Persue, Askew, Tracie Ching, Brendan Monroe and more, alongside three custom BLEACH-inspired blades (high-performance surfboards) by Jack Soren.

The exhibition features more than 20 internationally acclaimed artists from the worlds of fine art, street culture, illustration and contemporary design, and presents never-before-seen original works inspired by the iconic characters, unforgettable battles and rich mythology that have captivated fans for more than two decades.
