Tokyo City View "Osamu Tezuka's Firebird" Exhibition -The Firebird is a Symbol of Dynamic Equilibrium Against Increasing Entropy = Cosmic Life (Cosmozone)-"
Osamu Tezuka, the creator of numerous masterpieces, declared the manga "Firebird" to be his life's work, and is a masterpiece that depicts the struggles of people in pursuit of the legendary bird "Firebird", which is said to gain eternal life by those who drink its blood. While alternating between the past and the future, this work's magnificent worldview, which expresses philosophical themes such as "life and death" and "reincarnation" in all directions, continues to capture people's hearts.
In this exhibition, biologist Shinichi Fukuoka was involved in the planning and deciphers the epic poem written over a long period of more than 30 years. In addition, the key visual for this exhibition is by graphic designer Taku Sato. Centered on the "Firebird", a super-life form that exists beyond time and space, it is an impactful design based on red and black.
Now, 70 years after the start of the serialization of "Firebird," Mr. Fukuoka will be a guide to decipher the narrative structure of "Firebird" from the perspective of a new theory of life, and to search for answers to the question "What is life?" that Osamu Tezuka continued to express throughout his life.
* Osamu Tezuka's "Tsuka" is officially written in the old font.
