AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A remarkable collection of over 100 drawings and writings, compiled from the numerous sketches and notes produced during his stay in Los Angeles in the spring of 1998.
Centred on drawings of children—who seem to gaze back at the viewer—drawn on scraps of notebook paper and envelopes, these works are imbued with the inspiration of the time and the solitary spirit of a soul in search of freedom.
Another charm of this book is the opportunity to read the poetic writings of his youth alongside the drawings.
‘I don’t want to sit still. Not really.’ (From the text)
This is an illustrated collection that represents the very origins of Yoshitomo Nara, one of Japan’s leading artists, whose works are held in museums around the world, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the British Museum.
This is a used item, so there may be some minor scratches, scuffs, and dirt on the exterior due to age, but the text and photos are in good condition.
