Akira Kurosawa
The late film director, Akira Kurosawa, is often credited with introducing Japanese cinema to a foreign audience and inspiring filmmakers all over the world, winning many awards for his great career along the way. However he was also a gifted artist, so much so that his paintings were admitted to the prestigious Nika Exhibition at the age of 18. He went on to execute impressive storyboards, which became a part of the process to realize his imagination onscreen. At Horipro, we have been commissioned from Kurosawa Productions to manage copyrights and undertake restoration for all of over 2000 works of art produced for films “Kagemusha” and onwards.
This exhibition aims to celebrate and re-examine the exceptional career of Akira Kurosawa. We wish the storyboards painted in his own hand will be seen by as many people as possible, transcending borders and generations.
