Mytika innovates and inspires art trends. Today, Mytika and its auctioneer Bernard Brunet present the art of Japanese animation for the very first time in Normandy. Immortalized on the small and big screens for decades, these images from the Land of the Rising Sun follow in the footsteps of our comic-book culture, captivating three generations of viewers in every corner of the globe, between Giant Robots, Romance, Action, Adventure, Fiction, History, Crime and Space-Opera. Each drawing or celluloid is original and unique, each movement breathing life into characters made of paint and paper in front of the camera. This rare and precious craft, entirely handmade, respects the memory of the end of the twentieth century, before being gradually replaced by computerized machines. The emotion and passion of pencil and brush strokes, these new prints thrill us just like the Impressionists did in their day. Make way for a chapter from a representative selection of the last 40 years of illustrated stories, for your greatest pleasure in discovering or rediscovering the series, films and characters of Japanese culture.
