About the Item

Taku Obata Signed And Numbered Art Book Zine Edition of 200 Street Art Japan. Thick heavy stock paper with vibrant inks. 8 1/4 × 6 in 21 × 15.2 cm Edition 170/200 Hand Signed by the artist in black ballpoint pen and dated 2021. YEAR 2021 CLASSIFICATION: Limited edition MEDIUM TYPE: Books and Portfolios MEDIUM/MATERIALS: Thick heavy stock paper with vibrant inks. Best known for his monumental BBoy forms, Taku Obata is a multidisciplinary artist spanning sculpture, painting and print making. With his playful approach, Taku transitions seamlessly between figurative and abstract styles with compositions inspired by history, nature and culture. Fusing traditional Japanese techniques with contemporary arts practice, he forges dynamic and surprising compositions, the largest of which he has been experimenting with the UK based print house; "This edition of 21 colour silkscreen prints was very exciting to make; I've never seen a silk screen print at this scale with so many layers. I visited the print studio in England and was very surprised and impressed at the printing technology and machinery. I hope you enjoy the results" - Taku Obata Whether carving form from a single block of wood or mounds of paint; Taku considers his process to be one of ‘sculptural’ thinking. Works radiate with fluid movement, his BBoy past inspiring a spontaneous dance-like practice for his work, crafting and responding to an emerging creative direction with each stroke. Taku’s mark making is totally unique and for us, an almost direct translation of his sculpture al 2D work process. With this release we want to capture his mark making as closely as possible. To achieve that we utilised cutting edge technology within printmaking to edition an original piece of Taku’s work at a 1:1 scale. The detail in the reproduction is truly incredible and we’re proud to say that this looks more like an original than anything we’ve created before. - Fluorescent Smogg
