Celebrating Japan’s master painter Hokusai and his impact on the world of Manga, the art has come to Australia after previously touring through Europe and Asia.
Councillor Colleen Doyle said it was an interesting exhibition and would increase the region’s understanding of Japanese culture.
“Each exhibition we install is different. This one gives us a taste of Japanese art form which is a significantly different,” she said.
Hokusai is among the best known Asian artists in the western world and his Manga and ukiyo-e style works have continued to permeate art history and popular culture for the past 200 years.
