“This winter, a manga wave sweeps through the Guimet Museum!
Whatever your age, whatever your generation, rediscover your favorite heroes in an exceptional landmark exhibition, presented for the first time across all three floors of the museum.
On the second floor, dive into 18th- and 19th-century Japan and discover how graphic techniques already appear, under the brush of great masters such as Kyosai, Hokusai, and Utamaro, that would reemerge two centuries later in manga. A mysterious world populated by monsters, ghosts, and grotesque characters, where dream bubbles and explosive flatulence appear, revealing the full range of Japanese narrative art—from the most uproarious humor to the most instructive tales.”
