Artists

Chihiro Iwasaki

Following her wish to create illustrations that colored people’s daily lives, Chihiro Iwasaki chose the art of print as a venue for presenting her work. Along with the production of picture books, Chihiro’s work for monthly magazines and picture magazines became her mainstay. Among them, "Children’s Happiness" and "Children’s World" imposed few restrictions, allowing her to work freely and paving the way for creating representative works for each era. Many readers were said to have eagerly awaited the arrival of Chihiro’s illustrations every month in these magazines. In this exhibit, we will introduce pieces from the monthly magazines "Children’s Happiness" and "Children’s World," along with developments in printing technology and the changes in Chihiro’s approach to her work.
