Product Description

This groundbreaking monograph offers an in-depth exploration of Yoshitomo Nara's art, from his early years to his recent works. It utilizes a wealth of valuable materials, including long-term interviews and testimonies from those involved in his life and career. The book is divided into five chapters, each focusing on a different period in Nara's life, from his roots in the Tohoku region of Japan, his childhood encounters with music, his education at Aichi Prefectural University of Fine Arts and Music, his training in Germany, his struggles in the 2000s when he gained enthusiastic support, his return to the north triggered by the Great East Japan Earthquake, and his thoughts for the future. This monograph is a result of a close collaboration between Yoshitomo Nara and an art historian who works across Asia, Europe, and the United States.

Product Specification

The book features about 400 images, including Nara's works, snapshots from his travels, and rare documents. Nine new works are specially included in the original Japanese edition. The book provides a comprehensive view of Nara's art, which, like the music he loves so deeply, is always fresh, always needed in the here and now, and always in flux. Yoshitomo Nara's art is constantly searching for new ways to move forward.
