Upcoming Exhibition and Symposiums at The Billy Ireland Cartoon Library & Museum

WORLD OF SHOJO MANGA!
MIRRORS OF GIRLS’ DESIRES

March 28, 2015 – July 5, 2015

Columbus: The Billy Ireland Cartoon Library & Museum will celebrate Women’s History Month, and their international cartoon holdings, with the opening of World of Shojo Manga! Mirrors of Girls’ Desires, a traveling exhibit curated by Masami Toku, Dept. of Art and Art History, CSU-Chico.

Many different kinds of manga have been published for different ages, genders, and fans’ favorite themes since the 1970s. One of the major characteristics of Japanese manga is that it has split into boy’s (shonen) and girl’s (shojo) manga, each developing in its own way. Based on reader’s expectations, each boy’s and girl’s manga has its own theme. Regardless of the subject, the main theme in boy’s manga is competitive fighting, and how the heroes become men by protecting women, family, country, or the earth from enemies, while the main theme of girl’s manga is simply love. Within this context, the topics in shojo manga have changed in response to girl’s expectations and have developed into diverse subjects over the last 70 years since World War I. This exhibition will focus on discussing the specific phenomenon of women’s changing roles and expectations in Japan.

The exhibition will feature works by 12 artists, including female mangaka Masako Watanabe, Miyako Maki, Hideko Mizuno, Machiko Satonaka, and Moto Hagio.

Masami Toku, curator of this exhibit, is a professor in the Department of Art and Art History (CSU), Chico, where she teaches courses in art education and multicultural perspectives of art appreciation. She also works internationally as an educator, publisher, researcher, and speaker. Professor Toku created this touring exhibition to explore the role of visual pop culture that impacts U.S. society through the phenomenon of manga in Japan. It also introduces manga’s value and contribution to visual culture and society with a special emphasis on shojo manga.

This exhibit will be part of a continuing celebration of manga throughout the spring semester, including two symposiums: Classic Manga and Development & Globalization of Manga (more info below).

Join us on Saturday, April 4th from 5 – 7pm for the opening reception of World of Shojo Manga! Mirrors of Girls’ Desires in The Billy Ireland Cartoon Library & Museum galleries. Cosplayers are welcome and encouraged!

Also on display at The Billy Ireland Cartoon Library & Museum will be Graphic Details: Confessional Comics by Jewish Women. Separate details forthcoming.
