Marching on a Butterbur Leaf (2019)
This newly commissioned print, made in collaboration with Dallas Contemporary, is based on a 2016 painting by the acclaimed Japanese artist Yoshitomo Nara. Produced by a traditional printing method, offset lithography, the poster draws on Nara’s signature combination of pop cultural imagery, personal experience and the art historical canon.
YOSHITOMO NARA
Yoshitomo Nara (Japanese, b.1959) lives and works in Tokyo. His work draws on his childhood experiences of spending time alone with only his imagination, comic books and family pets. As a result, much of his work includes images of seemingly innocent, wide-eyed and comic book-like children and dogs. His nightmarish graphics, for which he has gained an international cult following, are simultaneously vulnerable and provocative, and stand as a critical affront to the rigidness of certain aspects of Japan’s social conventions
