The Tokyo Fuji Art Museum presents an exhibition dedicated to Osamu Tezuka (1928 - 1989), a pivotal figure in the history of Japanese manga and animation. Through a selection of original works, sketches, and archival materials, the exhibition offers an in-depth look at Tezuka's career and artistic legacy. Known as the "God of Manga," Tezuka revolutionized Japanese comics by introducing innovative storytelling techniques and iconic characters such as Astro Boy, Black Jack, and Kimba the White Lion. The exhibition also explores his more philosophical works, like Phoenix and Buddha, highlighting the thematic depth and stylistic versatility of the artist. The exhibition is part of the celebrations marking the 70th anniversary of the publication of some of Tezuka's most influential works, providing visitors with the opportunity to rediscover the artist's contribution to Japanese and global popular culture.
