Tadanori Yokoo (b. 1936) is one of Japan's most successful and internationally recognized graphic designers and artists. He began his career as a stage designer for Avant Garde theatre. His work can be described as a mixture of pop culture with the style and colours of Ukiyo-e prints and he has often been described as the "Japanese Andy Warhol". The present work is rare and the term isaku-shu (posthumous works) is of course a joke. Only 2 copies in OCLC.
