Just went there not long ago d/art The "ASIAN ILLUSTRATION Special Exhibition" (2021.03.06 – 04.04) is an exhibition of micro-jet reproduction paintings based on the creators and works of this album (at the time)Fan Special Record). Sure enough, the pictures on the gallery are far inferior to the large-scale painting display. Every detail makes me amazed again and again, and I stopped in front for a long time~

46 Asian illustrators are carefully selected in the book, spanning 6 countries including Taiwan, South Korea, Singapore, China, Indonesia, and Malaysia. Among them, Taiwanese creators include PainDude, low-level mistakes, and LOIZA. Surprisingly, I found that there is no Japanese illustrator (I always thought that there is XD). Perhaps the choice is too big. The publishing place in Japan may already have many publications mainly composed of domestic illustrators.

In fact, what is included is only the tip of the iceberg of outstanding illustrators. But I have to say that the works included in this book are really very high-quality!

● Zeen Chin (Malaysia) ↓

● REDUM (China)↓

The layout is smooth and easy to read, with most of the included works displayed one image per page, avoiding a cramped feel. Each illustrator has approximately 2 to 6 pages, accompanied by bilingual (Japanese and English) author introductions and explanations of their work. The book concludes with a 6-page interview with Guweiz.

In the "ASIAN ILLUSTRATION Special Exhibition", the works of "Phantom Electroillusion", which were copied by micro-jets, were amazed, especially the jellyfish and the feeling of tulle that could not be printed in the book, so I put a few more copies of him. Creation~
