A Knowing Look from Yokohama
The girl on this sheet is one of the gentler, more ambiguous faces of Nara’s post-2011 work, half smiling and half watchful. The orange type gives the design real punch on a wall. It is the opening image of the tour.
Best for: Nara collectors and first-time buyers of museum exhibition posters

Freight piece: please confirm delivery before purchase
This piece travels in a crate or by freight rather than standard mail, and may need careful dismantling before it can be packed. The shipping shown at checkout is an estimate. Japonista reserves the right to determine the final handling, crating and freight cost when your order is received, according to the piece, the destination and carrier conditions at that time.
We advise requesting a delivery quote before checkout. If the final cost is higher than the amount paid, we send the difference for your approval before dispatch. Your piece is held for you until it is settled.

Can't Wait 'til the Night Comes, Yoshitomo Nara’s sly, sideways-glancing girl of 2012, on the poster for his survey at the Yokohama Museum of Art.
The Piece
She looks out with one green eye and one red, her mouth curled into the slightest knowing smile, a fringe of chestnut hair falling across her brow. Her ochre dress is brushed in loose, glowing strokes. Bold orange lettering, NARA Yoshitomo: a bit like you and me..., runs down the left side, with the dates and museum along the foot.
The exhibition opened at the Yokohama Museum of Art from 14 July to 23 September 2012 before travelling on to Aomori and Hokkaido. The new paintings in it, this girl among them, are quieter and more inward than the defiant children of the 1990s; in B2 the sheet pairs with the Aomori poster.
