Watase Seizou's exhibition ``Watase Seizo's World Exhibition - Encounter with Tezuka's World'' will be held from March 6th to June 7th at the Osamu Tezuka Memorial Museum in Takarazuka City, Hyogo.
This exhibition will be held in Hyogo, as it is also Watase's hometown. The venue is divided into four major areas, and ``ZONE1 Introduction Watase Seizou'' will display carefully selected works from the ``Adventures Around the Calendar'' series, which depicts a long-distance relationship between Kyoto and Tokyo.
In "ZONE2 Masterpiece 'Heart Cocktail'", the original drawing of Watase's masterpiece 'Heart Cocktail', which was serialized in Weekly Morning (Kodansha) from 1983 to 1989, will be unveiled. ``ZONE3 Manga Artist Seizou Watase'' looks back on Watase's activities as a manga artist such as ``New Manga Insect Diary,'' ``Otoko no Uta,'' ``Private Detective Philip,'' and ``Nana,'' while ``ZONE4 Illustrator Seizou Watase'' looks back on Watase's art career, along with illustrations used in ``Season Pia,'' ``We were young then,'' and ``Watase Seizou Original Calendar.''
Matawatase's autograph session will be held on April 11th at the Takarazuka City Cultural Arts Center, located across from the Osamu Tezuka Memorial Museum. A print exhibition will also be held from April 8th to 19th.
