A very large and wonderful exhibition poster from Masami Teraoka's work "Los Angeles Sushi Ghost Tales / Fish Woman and Artist II, 1979". The poster is from the 1980 exhibit at the Newport Harbor Art Museum which featured works by this Japanese-American artist. It is hand-signed in pencil by Teraoka in the lower right margin. Printed on thick poster paper. Will look fantastic once framed. Masami Teraoka has had over 70 solo exhibitions and he has twice been honoured by the American Academy of Arts and Letters in New York and he has also received two fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts. His works can be found in collections and museums around the world including: The Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco; the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco; the Smithsonian American Art Museum, Washington D.

Tomio Kinoshita (1923 – 2014) Big Boys, 1960 Woodblock print Image size: 32.75 high by 22 inches wide (83 by 56 cm) Paper size: 35.5 high by 23.75 inches wide (90 by 60.3 cm) Signed: in pencil lower right, Tomio Kinoshita Titled: in pencil at lower left Edition: 30/50 Condition: Very good The woodblock for this large print was carved in 1958, just three years after Kinoshita’s began creating woodblocks. This print was signed and dated in 1960, but not numbered; prints were also pulled from this block in the 1970s, so it must have been one of more popular images. One of his students has written, “As time progressed further, the postwar era saw improvements in nutrition, and children became taller and heavier than in the past, but their lack of physical exercise and severely inferior physical abilities became a social problem; this is ironically depicted in Big Boys.” In 1963, Kinoshita told him that he had just finished pulling a print of this image in response to a request from Unichi Hiratsuka...
