"I don’t like to draw superheroes or perfect people," Japan-based artist and Spring 2021 cover artist Yusuke Hanai told us. "Our lives are always up and down. The guy sighing could be you, could be me, could be a friend, because we all have the experience of being down. Life is not so easy. We do stupid things we regret. Nobody is perfect, but we all have the power to laugh away the problems in life."

This image feels like the embodiment of the last 12 months around the globe. Friends helping friends out, in a tough spot, supporting others you care about.

As far as I know the juxatpoz prints are not signed or numbered, simply timed editions.

That print with print them all is really great! Remind me the lecture last night of the spectrum of the moove from Taku Obata, some techniques used and mouvement, direction. I really enjoy the lecture.
Btw thanks you for that share with Meguru Yamaguchi I have to do some homeworks now

Where is this releasing?

Thanks! I just purchased the signed book which he released. It is an edition of 150 and to my understanding the book cover itself is a screenprint. I believe some of you may already have the book, if so please confirm.
Thanks

Thank you for understanding.


We are pleased to introduce our brand-new publication — a chronicle of drawings and other two-dimensional works by the internationally renowned sculptor Taku Obata.

While creating large wooden sculptures in the shape of B-BOY, Obata began drawing with the intention of "sketch for sculpture". But, in drawing countless sketches, he had got to an awareness that the physical act of "drawing" or "moving for the sake of drawing", as well as a confrontation with the concept of mass, such as "moving the paint on the screen as a quantity", have some common point with sculpture.
And that has led him to acquire a new technique of expression, and he is on the verge of reaching a unique state of being not only a painter, but also a "sculpture on a plane".

This book contains a portion of Obata's vast body of work through eight years in the process of its evolution, as well as his changing consciousness of the act of creation. This is a collection of works that can be considered the core of Obata's expression as a B-Boy/sculptor, in which he decomposes and visualizes "movement," both physical and intangible, like a spectrum that differentiates light into grasping elements such as wavelengths and colors, and at the same time sublimates it into his own physical expression.

It is usually difficult to reproduce the vivid colors of Obata's work in print, but for this work, we tried unique five-color printing method that blends standard four-color printing with fluorescent and other inks for each part to ensure as much reproduction as possible.

It took three years to complete this work, partly because it was difficult to measure the timing of the "movement" of Obata's work as it evolved at an astonishing speed, and partly because it was difficult to adhere the "movement" to the fixed package as a book. It can be said that this work, which has finally taken shape, captures the timing of a milestone in Obata’s continuous evolution and endlessly expanding sculptural thinking.
