Tadanori Yokoo Koshimaki-Osen vintage poster 1966 screenprint in colors 43.25 h x 30.25 w in (110 x 77 cm) An early, award-winning work by the artist, this poster's English title is "Osen in Petticoats," and references the inaugural performance of the 1960s troupe Jokyo Gekijo. Part of the counterculture movement, this troupe challenged traditional Japanese theatre while also acting as a mouthpiece of protest toward larger issues. "It followed that any poster for a performance by the 'Jokyo Gekijo' also had to take the form of visual agitation, [and] the posters Yokoo created... [reflect these] intentions exactly" (Yokoo p. 8). This is a silkscreen print. Literature: Yokoo, p. 26; Yokoo/Graphic Works, p. 88; Yokoo's Posters, 12; Yokoo/Paris, 8; Word & Image, p. 127; PAI-LXII, 600 This work will ship from Lambertville, New Jersey.
