about the artist

nara yoshitomo (born in 1959) does not need an introduction, being likely the most successful living japanese artist, with top price exceeding 220 million hkd at sotheby's hong kong.

his artworks are purchased by top museums, institutions and collectors worldwide. While writing this listing, he is having a solo exhibition at guggenheim bilbao, spain.

his multiples (prints, objects etc.) are sold out soon, and become collectables artworks right away.

"nara first came to the fore of the art world during japan's pop art movement in the 1990s. The subject matter of his sculptures and paintings is deceptively simple: most works depict one seemingly innocuous subject (often pastel-hued children and animals drawn with confident, cartoonish lines) with little or no background. But these children, who appear at first to be cute and even vulnerable, sometimes brandish weapons like knives and saws. Their wide eyes often hold accusatory looks that could be sleepy-eyed irritation at being awoken from a nap—or that could be undiluted expressions of hate".
