"Elefun Pop Art & Toy Show" @ ACGHK2021



"Elefun Pop Art & Toy Show" is co-exhibiting with Hong Kong Animation Video Game Festival AKA ACGHK2021 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre Hall (July 23-26), and is literally the "art toy" component of the annual show.

Co-organized by Winson Classic Creation, this is the second year utilising the "Elefun" branding, while previous incarnations of this annual event included B.O.A.T. (Both of the Art & Toys) in 2017 / 2018 2019... and "ARTIDOL" from my early days of bloggery...!

Thanks to the dedicated Instagram @elefun_toy_show and Facebook, here is what I had found out to share...








This year's ELEFUN essentially encompasses three main exhibitions: The MAIN exhibition showcasing art toys from around the Asian region, each with their own display booths (see above / Mirrored here and here on FB), and as well two custom toy exhibitions with "POPEYE + FRIENDS ART FIT EXHIBITION" and "LYCHEE & FRIENDS POP ART SHOW".




The "POPEYE + FRIENDS ART FIT EXHIBITION" presents invited artists' interpretation of POPEYE and his friends, in a licensed release ranging from one-offs to production editions of 10pcs per artist! Featured above is a snapshot of what is available, and as well below are what I could find on Instagram. A all-encompassing hashtag would definitely help identifying them, IMHO.










The "LYCHEE & FRIENDS POP ART SHOW" (Booth A51-56) specifically showcases Korean lifestyle brand characters "Lychee & Friends" (lycheeandfriends.com / Instagram) made into figures (in pairs), as interpreted by artists from Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea and Malaysia. Think KakaoTalk's line-up of KAKAO FRIENDS, and you get the gist. Featured below are Instagram-slideshows, and are as well mirrored here on Facebook.





The next incarnation of ELEFUN will be held in Guangzhou, China (September 19-21, 2021), which you can read more about here (in mostly Mandarin text).
