The exhibition “Packaging Manga Art: Shueisha Manga-Art Heritage, Paper, and Processing” that was held at MIHONCHO HONTEN in Tokyo in December 2023 is coming to Yodoyabashi MIHONCHO.
Manga Art is a project run by Shueisha Manga-Art Heritage that transforms manga into artworks suitable for passing down to future generations, utilizing a variety of printing technologies, including letterpress printing, collotype printing, gravure printing, and digital inkjet printing. This exhibition presents a world of packaging that combines functionality and attractive design developed jointly by Shueisha and TAKEO for manga art. The design includes fine paper, washi paper, and other paper materials and printing technologies that support manga art, as well as forms of packaging for wrapping, presenting, or storing these precious works.
| The Press | |
| “The Press” is a series of works in which manga, a monochrome form of | |
| narrative art, is made using flatbed letterpress machines, | |
| which are very scarce today, and Gmund Cotton, | |
| a premium fine paper consisting of 100% cotton. | |
| Real Color Collection | |
| The “Real Color Collection” series renders realistic colors from | |
| color originals that cannot be reproduced with the offset printing | |
| that is usually used with comics and manga magazines by capturing | |
| them using high-resolution digital cameras and using digital | |
| inkjet printing with a broad range of colors. | |
| Last Gravure | |
| “Last Gravure” is created using gravure printing, which fostered | |
| the postwar culture for magazines, photography, and publishing. | |
| It is a collaboration between Keiichi Tanaami and Fujio Akatsuka. | |
| * “The Millennium” will not be exhibited at Fukuoka MIHONCHO. | |
