Description from the seller
Yoshitomo Nara - Missing in Action
Official poster
High-quality offset print
Original photos of the poster for sale.
Poster size: 36.4 cm x 51.5 cm
Missing in Action represents a solitary little girl wearing a red dress, isolated against a stark background. Her oblique gaze, clenched fists and determined expression blend innocence, defiance and rebellion. Yoshitomo Nara plays with the contrast between the childlike appearance of the character and an almost provocative attitude. The work evokes solitude, vulnerability and the refusal of conformity, while retaining the emotional ambiguity characteristic of the artist, which continues to engage the adult viewer.
Will be carefully packaged when shipped.
Yoshitomo Nara is a major figure in Japanese contemporary art, known for his childlike characters with ambivalent expressions, mixing innocence and rebellion. His visual universe, influenced by pop culture and punk, dialogues with artists such as Yayoi Kusama, Takashi Murakami or Takeru Amano. On the international stage, his work resonates with Jeff Koons, Damien Hirst or KAWS. He also shares affinities with Banksy, Invader or D*Face, while influencing the culture of objects like Bearbrick and Richard Orlinski.
