About the Item

Beautiful poster by Tadanori Yokoo for the Advertising Museum exhibition in 1984. Tadanori Yokoo was a renowned graphic designer whose posters and album covers for the Beatles, Miles Davis, Carlos Santana and other musicians had a profound influence on global pop culture. His psychedelic posters combined traditional Japanese motifs with elements of pop art, surrealism and American graphic arts, and anticipated the San Francisco posters of the 1960s. Yokoo's work was featured alongside artists such as Frank Stella and Andy Warhol in MoMA's "Word and Image" exhibition in 1968. Known for transgressing visual taboos, Yokoo used symbols of Japanese imperialism - the rising sun, Mount Fuji, high-speed trains - to ironic effect, often combining them with vulgar imagery. His graphic style is inspired by Japanese ukiyo-e prints and collage. A trip to India reinforced his interest in mysticism, which led him to use Buddhist imagery.

    Located in PARIS, FR
    Original old poster of the Chemins de fer de l'Est promoting travel in Switzerland, illustrated by E. Bourgeois. Eugène Victor Bourgeois (1855 - 1909) was a French painter, illustrator and poster artist. Self-taught painter, Eugene Victor Bourgeois began at the Salon of 1874. He exhibited there in 1880, as well as at the Salon des artistes français in 1881 where he obtained a medal of honor that year, then a 3rd class medal in 18851.
