Art of Manga Opens at the Brooklyn Museum With 658 Works
The Art of Manga exhibition, which debuted at the de Young Museum in San Francisco last year, opens at the Brooklyn Museum with 658 works, most of them the same selection. Brooklyn curator Joan Cummins says the hard part was hanging 658 pieces in the right order in a circa 1900 room with columns and two ceiling heights. Brooklyn adds pages from Jiro Taniguchi's Hundred Year Lineage; the de Young's full-scale printing press is now a video installation.
