Fine Art Museum of San Francisco Director and CEO Thomas P. Campbell
It is a dynamic story expression in images, and manga that attracts millions of readers around the world is one of the most important visual media in modern times. San Francisco has long been the entrance to cultural exchange with Japan in the United States.
I am happy to be able to praise the tradition while introducing the art of the Narativ art, the art of manga, held the “Art ofManga” exhibition.
University of East Anglia (UK) Sainsbury Japan Art Research Institute “Art of Manga” Exhibition Curator Nicol Coulidge Le Manniere
It is the reality of this era that the expression of the story is shifting from text to image. Manga, which talks about the story in images and lines rather than letters, makes readers intuitive and make it possible to enjoy the work with people around the world.
By referring to the fan letters and SNS comments sent from the characters and the enthusiasm for their whereabouts, writers and publishers also change the progressive story and create new comics. That is the pioneer in cultural changes.
