Tadanori Yokoo, a Japanese graphic artist, was born in 1960 and is still alive today. Tadanori prefers graphic designs that incorporate pop culture and Japanese culture. Tadanori loves spreading Japanese culture through his works. He also popularized pop culture in Japan with his designs. He created a poster for the Japanese play Noh, which tells the story of a fisherman who was caught in a fishnet and rescued by a woman. That's why the poster contains a woman with a fishing rod stuck in her mouth. Its design contains the scenario and theme of the play, including bold, flashy colors.

What an amazing addition to the archive. It is a very interesting and impactful poster, with a combination of different styles. I have been a fan of many of Tadanori Yokoo's works and love his gradient backgrounds and use of vibrant colors. The way the images are not blended in with the background with bold colorful outlines makes for a very strong and unique visual.
