A seminal figure of Japanese Pop art, Keiichi Tanaami makes colorful, cartoonish paintings, collages, animations, and works on paper that challenge divisions between “high” and “low” culture and between East and West. Throughout his alternately surreal, erotic, violent, and unsettling work, he juxtaposes references from 20th-century Americana—vintage pin-ups, logos, and ’60s psychedelia, for example—with elements of traditional Japanese illustration and manga.
