Gallery tokinowasuremono [Tadanori YOKOO]

Tadanori YOKOO		Tadanori Yokoo was born in 1936 in Hyogo Prefecture. Together with Masuo Ikeda, he counts as one of the veritable superstars of 1960s Japanese art. Yokoo was interested into pictures already as a child and submitted works to magazines such as Shonen Manga already in elementary school. During his high school days, his aspirations changed from Manga artist to illustrator, and he enrolled for distance university classes. Yokoo also started to paint in oil colors and to apply for exhibitions. However, submissions such as to the Taiheiyo Art Association were rejected because of his age. Out of consideration for his parents, Yokoo forwent art university and started to work, but was laid off half a year later. During 1956, he continued to submit to magazines and exhibitions, while at the same time working at the advertisement department of the Kobe Shimbun newspaper.		The following year, he began to design posters for the operations department of Kobe Shimbun. In 1959, Yokoo transferred to the National Advertisement Institute, and joined the Nippon Design Center in 1960. While his reputation continued to grow, Yokoo in 1965 met Yukio Mishima on the occasion of his first solo exhibition, and in 1967 joined Shuji Terajima’s theater project, Tenjo Sajiki, as an artistic support. Yokoo also began to exhibit outside of Japan. While he worked as a graphic artist throught the 1980s, an exhibition of Picasso’s work that he saw in New York in 1980 eventually triggered Yokoo to switch to oil painting. Yokoo continued to collaborate widely and in diverse media. To this day, he remains one of the outstanding Japanese visual artists.
