“Slash with a Knife New Edition” Yoshitomo Nara

About the productJapanese

The origins of Yoshitomo Nara. A long-awaited reprint after 25 years!

This miraculous drawing book contains over 100 of the many pictures and words created during the artist's stay in Los Angeles in the spring of 1998.
The works, centered around drawings of children staring back at him, drawn on scraps of notebook paper and envelopes, are imbued with the inspiration and lonely soul seeking freedom of the time.
Another appeal of this book is that you can read the poetic writings from the author's younger days along with the illustrations.
"I don't really want to just sit there." (From the article)
This is a collection of illustrations and essays that could be considered the origin of Yoshitomo Nara, one of Japan's leading artists, whose works are held in art museums around the world, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the British Museum.

This masterpiece is now available to you again.
*This new edition has a new cover and includes English translations of all texts.
*First press limited edition postcard included
