Eiko Ishioka
Ten years after her death, Eiko Ishioka (1938-2012) is once again attracting attention in Japan and abroad. Ishioka (1938-2012) was a globally active designer whose work transcended genres of expression such as advertising, stage, and film, as well as national borders.
This exhibition features over 400 of Ishioka's works from the 1960s to the 1980s, when she was based in Tokyo, including posters, commercials, artwork, and sketches that caused a sensation. What is important for an artist is to cultivate "true self-power." In other words, to refine the "I". With this belief in mind, Ishioka continued her creative journey to create innovative visuals. Ishioka has continued her creative journey of creating innovative visuals while collaborating with top runners in diverse fields such as photography, film, and illustration.
This exhibition will explore the "I" at the core of Eiko Ishioka's creations. Experience the timeless vitality of design through the visuals that still radiate passion and Ishioka's own words. This is not a retrospective exhibition. Eiko Ishioka is here.
