Yoshitomo Nara a fait irruption il y a maintenant dix ans sur la scène artistique internationale. Il est devenu l'un des artistes japonais les plus énigmatiques de sa génération. Dans cette première monographie de son oeuvre, Yoshitomo Nara rassemble des peintures, des dessins, des sculptures et des photographies qui lui ont valu sa renommée mondiale et son statut de célébrité. Ses oeuvres semblent enfantines, d'une simplicité trompeuse, parfois très inquiétantes. C'est cette ambiguïté qui caractérise le travail de Yoshitomo Nara. Il explore la perte de l'innocence dans notre société, et ses personnages sont devenus de véritables icônes.
