¡Hiroshi Nagai Works: TROPICAL MODERN
¡Nagai Hiroshi
Description
[Machine Translation] Hiroshi Nagai depicts landscapes with "buildings". This long-awaited large-format collection of his works, which includes some of his first published works, will be published this summer! Popular illustrator Hiroshi Nagai has been active since the 1970s in a variety of record jackets and advertisements, including the jacket work for the immortal classic album "A LONG VACATION" (Eiichi Otaki). His unique style, a mixture of surrealism and pop art, gradually took shape in Nagai's mind during a 40-day trip to the U.S. in the early 1970s, combined with scenes of palm trees lining the streets in front of train stations in his hometown. In 2022, Nagai will continue to produce works in collaboration with the "U.S. ORIGINATOR" spec All-Star, as well as a collaboration model with the Miyazaki Car Ferry, and a collaboration model with the "U.S. ORIGINATOR" spec All-Star. In 2022, many of you may have seen his distinctive illustrations again in the "U.S. ORIGINATOR" spec All-Star collaboration model, the visual illustration for the Miyazaki Car Ferry, and the UT collection project with UNIQLO. For many years, Hiroshi Nagai's themes have included popular swimming pools, cars, people, nightscapes, etc. But did you know that he has also continued to draw many works using "buildings" as a motif? In this newly published collection, "TROPICAL MODERN," we have carefully selected works focusing on landscapes with buildings, with an emphasis on those painted in recent years. The book will be designed by Yoxxx. Hiroshi Nagai is a great lover of architecture and buildings. Through his filter, the scenes he admires become one-of-a-kind works of art that add a sophisticated charm to the entire book. As we face Corona, the spread of telecommuting and other factors have caused us to rethink how houses and buildings should be used as living spaces, and we hope you will find your own ideal piece in this book, including rare works that are included in the book for the first time.
