Curated by Spoke Art Gallery, My Neighbor Hayao features work from more than 250 artists in celebration of the acclaimed Japanese filmmaker and animator. Showcasing a diverse array of original painting, embroidery, sculpture, and limited edition prints that were first exhibited at Spoke during three highly popular group exhibitions attracting more than 10,000 attendees, this beautiful book grants fans of Miyazaki another creative avenue to explore his inspired worlds through interpretations of characters and themes found in iconic films including My Neighbor Totoro, Howl’s Moving Castle, Spirited Away, and Princess Mononoke.

I bought this as a gift to give to my sibling who is a fan of Miyazaki’s work! It’s pretty safe to say that the book was very well received!

Bought for a 14 year old who is obsessed with studio Ghibli and studying GCSE art. This book exceeds my expectations and is beautifully presented.There is a wide range of artists representing the films and characters in varying art styles. Although I am not familiar myself with the films and characters, I am so impressed with this book I am going to order myself a copy!!

Very nicely presented book, thick paper and good print quality, the bookmark and inside cover design is a very nice touch. Selected images are beautiful with a nice amount of variation. I would recommend for any ghibli fan!

Fantastic book. Ordered as a gift and loved by the birthday girl. Quality is good. Definitely worth the money.

really beautiful picture book, lots of inspiration for artists. Just note that most of the art in this book is fan art, and not by Hayao Miyazaki
