About the Item

The 1974 original exhibition poster for Tadanori Yokoo at the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam is a striking piece that encapsulates the vibrant and eclectic style of the renowned Japanese graphic designer and artist. This poster, created for Yokoo's exhibition at one of the most prestigious modern art museums in Europe, is a testament to his innovative approach and his ability to blend traditional Japanese art with contemporary pop culture influences. Tadanori Yokoo, born in 1936, is celebrated for his bold and colorful works that often explore themes of identity, spirituality, and the intersection of Eastern and Western cultures. Emerging in the 1960s, Yokoo quickly gained international recognition for his unique visual language, which combines elements of psychedelia, surrealism, and traditional Japanese iconography. His work has left a lasting impact on the fields of graphic design and fine art, influencing generations of artists and designers. The Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, known for its extensive collection of modern and contemporary art, hosted Yokoo's exhibition in 1974, showcasing his diverse range of works. The exhibition was a significant event, introducing European audiences to Yokoo's dynamic and visually arresting style. The poster for this exhibition reflects Yokoo's ability to create compelling and memorable imagery, drawing viewers into his vibrant artistic world. Yokoo's posters are renowned for their intricate compositions, often featuring a collage-like assemblage of images and symbols. His work during the 1970s was particularly noted for its bold use of color and striking visual narratives. The 1974 exhibition poster is no exception, encapsulating the essence of Yokoo's artistic vision and the eclectic nature of his work. It serves not only as a promotional tool for the exhibition but also as an artwork in its own right. The Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, founded in 1874, has long been a leading institution for modern and contemporary art. Its commitment to showcasing groundbreaking artists from around the world made it a fitting venue for Yokoo's exhibition. By hosting this event, the museum underscored its role as a platform for innovative and influential art, bridging cultural and artistic divides. Exhibition - Psychedelic

Conklin Lee Ten Years After, Sun Ra and Country Weather - 1968 Original Poster
Located in PARIS, FR
Original Poster from Lee Conklin. Lee Conklin is an artist best known for his psychedelic posters from the late 1960s and particularly for his iconic cover of Santana's first album. At the time, photography was the basis of advertising, while psychedelic graphics were done by hand and were mostly based on an illustration concept. The posters of this movement claim a new aesthetic: the flashy and warm colors, the shapes and moving typography and the density of the motif that invades the space translate the psychedelic vision, often associated with the taking of substances such as LSD. The psychedelic experience was evident in Ten Years After and Country Weather entangled in the branches of the island tree, but this was not a classic tree-of-life image. Fillmore West hung from the branches on spider web threads. Brotherhood of Light - Bill Graham, Tea Lautrec Litho...
