We are delighted to be able to offer a rare and wonderful Yoshitomo Nara piece on wood.
During Yoshitomo Nara’s 2008 show at the Baltic, the gallery produced a small number of wooden plaque invites which were limited only to special custodians of the gallery. The work measures 210mm x 150mm x 3mm and is printed on solid wood. It portrays one of Nara’s iconic girl characters standing atop a stack of $1000 bills.
We are delighted to be able to offer limited edition prints and posters by one of the most significant Contemporary Japanese Artists: Yoshitomo Nara.
Yoshitomo Nara has been an outstanding contributor to the Japanese Pop Art scene since the 1980’s with over 40 exhibitions and presence in some of the most important art institutions in the World.
With influences which include manga and punk, Yoshitomo Nara often depicts young girls, with melancholic expressions and sometimes brandishing weapons. Routed in childhood memories of post War Japan, Nara’s work conveys a personal narrative – one where he recalls a largely independent upbringing and a rebellious youth.
