On December 19, 2018, on January 14, 2019, the “Ottoman Gallery of the Umbrella Painter Kaitian Yuji” was held at the GRAND NIKKO TOKYO Odaiba in Tokyo, showing most of the science fiction, painted by the monster painter Kaitian Yuji. The illustrator of Altman and the monster is also the commemoration of the 40th anniversary of Kaitian’s painting industry

Known as “Monster Painter”, Kaitian Yuji from the original “Ottoman” to the latest “Robe Altman”, from monsters to machinery, from “Gorgila” to “Gamela” to “Mobile Warrior Gundam, “Space Warship Yamato”, works at the exhibition, spanning CDs, DVDs, models and other box paintings, seals, book covers, movie posters, even if you don’t know the name of Kaitian Yuji, how many of these paintings enter Within the sight of the audience. Not only in Japan, but also in the sci-fi works in Hollywood, Kaitian’s paintings can be seen, such as posters for the film “The Number One Player” directed by Stevens Pilberg in recent years, and posters for “King Kong Yeouido”. Why is the exhibition of the 40th anniversary of the painting industry mainly based on the portraits of the previous generations of Altman and the monster? What kind of feelings do they have about them during their long years of experience? Excite gave a brief interview with Mr. Kaitian after the signature meeting

The entrance to the gallery is the first to be seen in the latest painting “Rob Altman”. Teacher Kai Tian said that many of the artists who came to participate in the exhibition this time were families with children. The children are most interested in the recent works that have been broadcast on television. The “Ottoman” series has been welcomed by everyone for many years. Recently, the most profound thing for Kaitian teacher is that the audience nowadays is more in the generation of his grandson. Therefore, this exhibition is based on the past generations of Altman, in order to be able to see the young and old, a young and old can come to this exhibition

Kai Tian’s teacher first received the work of “Ottoman” 40 years ago, drawing an internal decomposition map for the science special search team base in the magazine. Teacher Kai Tian used to be a member of the “Monster Club” for a long time. Together with the good guys, he made the comrades related to “Ottoman”. Altman’s debut to Kaitian was the completion of the role, even if For 50 years, it seems that the design and worldview of the year are also very avant-garde. Of course, the current works are still watching

For the sci-fi works such as “Mobile Suit Gundam”, “Space Battleship Yamato” and other sci-fi works, why did Kaitian teacher more “prefer” “Altman”? Teacher Kai Tian said that because he likes monsters too much. Of course, Altman also likes it, but still prefers monsters. When I was young, I was looking forward to the monster that appeared every week. This is mainly because before the “Altman” broadcast, I like the monsters in the Dongbao movie series such as Gogilla. It is a pity that because it is a movie, it can only be seen once or twice a year. It is too addictive. Until the “Otto Q”, the predecessor of Altman, appeared on the TV screen, it was able to lock in front of the TV every week. After that, the “Ottoman” series also liked it. Now, even in his 60s, when he watched “Ottoman”, he was still the same as a child

Kaitian teacher recalled that he liked to draw some incredible creatures from an early age. When we see these incredible creatures – monsters appear in the city where we live, the whole city that has been used to it has become a world-like existence for a second. Can not be shocking, can not be exciting! When I was a child, when I heard the typhoon coming, Teacher Kaitian would also be inexplicably excited. This feeling is probably the same as when I saw the monster. Although in reality, no one likes disasters, monsters are fictitious. As a pleasure and entertainment, why not?
