Yoshitomo Nara Marching on a Butterbur Leaf, 2019
Offset lithograph in colors on archival paper
Literature: In ’Marching on a Butterbur Leaf,’ Yoshitomo Nara draws upon the visual language of the popular aesthetic of ultra-cuteness known in Japan as “kawaii.” Despite the unpretentious, almost childlike rendering and subtly sweet color palette of the work, Nara’s goggle-eyed gal leers at the viewer, brandishing her batons, appearing more menacing than playful.
Dimensions: 24 x 18 in (60.96 x 45.72 cm)
signature info: Unsigned
Edition: Edition of 1000
