The World of Tatsuya Miyanishi: Miracle World Picture Book Exhibition 55th Anniversary of Sano Museum of Art and 80th Anniversary of Mishima City
We will be holding an exhibition of Miyanishi Tatsuya, who has been illustrating picture books for 40 years and whose works featuring quirky and amusing characters are extremely popular.
A gentle but violent Tyrannosaurus, a melancholy Ultraman, cats, pigs, and wolves with unique personalities... Miyanishi Tatsuya wants to convey dreams, hope, and above all, kindness and compassion to children. We will uncover the creative secrets of Miyanishi Tatsuya, who continues to create picture books that grab our hearts and never let go.
In addition to approximately 260 original illustrations from popular picture books, including his latest works, the exhibition will also feature works from his student days, which could be considered the origin of his artistic career, sketches filled with creative ideas, and explanations of his drawing techniques.
Come experience the exciting world of Miyanishi!
