About the Item

Yoshitomo Nara Pup Cup 2003: This rare early Yoshitomo Nara Pup Cup art toy features Nara's Lonesome Puppy molded in a cup. A nicely-sized, highly collectible Nara art toy sure to standout in any setting. Medium: Vinyl art toy. Year: 2003. Approximate Dimensions: 9.5 x 8 inches. Good overall vintage condition. Minor signs of use & aging. Accompanied by original packaging. Unsigned from an edition of unknown. Stamped with Nara copyright at base of packaging. Published by Cerealart, Philadelphia. More on Yoshitomo Nara: Influenced by elements of popular culture such as anime, manga, Walt Disney cartoons, and punk rock, Yoshitomo Nara creates paintings, sculptures, and drawings of adorable-yet-sinister childlike characters. Painted with simple bold lines, primary colors, and set against empty backgrounds, these small children and animals often share the canvas with text, knives, plants, and cardboard boxes, among other recurring elements. As one of the fathers and central figures of the Japanese neo-Pop movement, Nara’s work expresses the struggle to find an identity fractured by war, rapid modernization, and an omnipresent visual culture.
