MURAKAMI

The first manga book by artist Aya Takano. She has taken the same creative approach as she does to her paintings, that is, to integrate the realm of extreme Sci-Fi imagination with the tiny gems she's found in her daily life. The narrative is inspired by the artist's own experiences where she struggled to come in terms with her daytime jobs, and those people who 'looked' against her. A Japanese girl called Noshi, or Takano herself portrayed as the protagonist, follows her desire to reach the stars in a stolen spacecraft until she gets lost and rescued by a traveling object called Spaceship EE. The ship carried thousands of war refugees from a colony planet traveling for 300 years in search of their home planet. She joined the passengers and was soon assigned to fight a real war instead of the battles in arcade games she used to be unbeatably good at on the earth. The book features the fully colored front/back/inside cover artworks, colored pages, and fully illustrated bonus data file at the end.

Spaceship EE

Aya Takano

The second graphic novel by artist Aya Takano. One day, 13 year old Asto Uruta meets an enigmatic boy named Kibayashi. From that day on, and as if guided by fate, mysterious events start to happen around her, as she takes her first steps into a world that is vastly different from everyday life. Ancient civilizations, messiahs, underground worlds, visitors from outer space... Where do we come from? What are we? Where are we going? Artist Aya Takano merges and molds the familiar devices of science fiction, and in the process, creates a world that is entirely her own. Crossing 3000 years of time and space comes the story of a girl bearing her destiny.

Takashi Murakami ”I Love Prints And So I Make Them”

<p>About the Author\nNobuo TSUJI is the premier authority on Japanese aesthetics, having studied the topic for nearly a half century. His unique perspective has helped him to illuminate a previously unstudied play-element in the country s aesthetic traditions, including certain eccentric techniques of expression found in Japanese art, decorative elements and animism. Lineage of Eccentrics: Matabei Kuniyoshi, published in 1988 by Perikansha Publishing, offered a reappraisal of the artistic practices of Iwasa Matabei, Kano Sansetsu, Ito Jakuchu, Soga Shohaku, Nagasawa Rosetsu and Utagawa Kuniyoshi, artists who had been considered peripheral to Japanese art history up to that point. By focusing on these artists, Tsuji was able to revive present day interest in their work and spirit. In addition to his writings, Tsuji has also left a significant mark on the education and development of Japan s art community through his work as an art university chancellor and museum director.</p>
