Keiichi Tanaami
The Japanese artist Keiichi Tanaami has recently enjoyed a surge in positive critical reappraisal. He began his career as a designer while enrolled at Musashino Art University, and in 1975 he became the first art director of the monthly magazine Playboy (Japanese edition). Tanaami became a leading figure in Japan’s underground art scene primarily on the strength of his work in magazines and advertisements.
From the 1960s until today, he has prolifically produced paintings, collages, sculptures, animations, experimental video pieces, and installations, applying methodologies and techniques he developed in the design field. Defying confinement to specific genres or conventional rules, he has had a significant impact in an art-historical context.
This exhibition is the first major retrospective covering Tanaami’s creative journey of more than 60 years, including the debut of his latest works, highlighting his status as a role model for contemporary artists.

奇妙奇天烈で色彩豊か、原色バリバリで目がバキバキの作品の量と質に圧倒されて、田名網ワールドに没頭することができた。

すごいボリューム。2時間はかかると思って行ったほうがいい。 とくに過去の映像がおもしろいし、まだまだエネルギッシュ。物販もたくさん。
