This exclusive light yellow t-shirt features Beshi, a laid-back, observant frog who lives under a drainpipe with his quirky companions—Nyarome, the alley cat and Kemunpas, the elderly caterpillar. Beshi now serves as the official mascot of Art of Manga, the groundbreaking exhibition organized by the de Young museum located in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park. Regarded as a pioneer of gag manga, creator Akatsuka Fujio created the beloved character Beshi from his noted manga Mōretsu Atarō. Produced by Tokyo-based Fujio Productions, this exclusive t-shirt is the perfect keepsake from this momentous exhibition. To care: wash on cold, dry low or hang dry to preserve image. Printed in California. 100% cotton.
Art of Manga spotlights artistic expression in innovative Japanese comics and graphic novels that are rapidly becoming an internationally recognized mode of communication. Drawing from both Western comics and satire and Japanese printing and art history, manga immerses readers in stories that often become forerunners of greater cultural shifts.
