Start/End Dates:October 25, 2021(Mon) ～ February 13, 2022(Sun)
Event Time: 9:00 AM～5:00 PM
Organizer: Yasuo Kozuki Museum of Art
You may discover that the cover of that book or magazine was painted by this artist.
This exhibition introduces approximately 100 pieces of original drawings and materials that Kozuki created as book covers, illustrations, and cuts, as well as Kozuki's works selected by authors and editors as book covers. Some of his works are reminiscent of works he painted around the same time, while others are in a style that is not recognizable at first glance, allowing visitors to appreciate the diversity of the artist's expression. In addition, as October 25, 2021 is the 110th birthday of Yasuo Kagetsu, a limited edition of 110 sets of "Postcard Sets Commemorating the 110th Anniversary of His Birth" will be on sale. This is the first exhibition of its kind at the Yasuo Kagetsu Museum of Art, so we hope you will take this opportunity to visit the exhibition.
