Taiyo Matsumoto's First Self-Selected Art Book in 19 Years
Taiyo Matsumoto's early artistic style was heavily influenced by Katsuhiro Otomo, S. Tsuchida, and Minetaro Mochizuki. His cool, hard style and sharp, angular visuals left a deep impression on viewers, and his playful spirit often appeared in his works. As his manga career progressed, his brushwork became more delicate and mature. In addition to simplifying and stylizing characters and forms, his lines gradually adopted traditional techniques, and he used ink wash instead of screen tones to create depth and layers, allowing his artwork to exhibit greater artistic possibilities and elevating the form of manga to a new level. This art book is Matsumoto Taiyo's latest art collection, released 19 years after his 1999 "101" illustration and short story collection. He personally selected the artworks and named this self-selected art book "TAIYOU." It includes works he created after 1999, such as novel covers, illustrations, posters, T-shirt designs, and rare works published in a few media outlets. This collection is an indispensable work for anyone wanting to understand Taiyo Matsumoto's style in the 2000s and is well worth collecting.
