Time Out says

One of Japan’s most influential and iconoclastic artists, Tadanori Yokoo has spent over six decades reshaping the boundaries of contemporary art. From his bold graphic designs in the 1960s to his later exploration of painting, photography and installation, the Hyogo native’s oeuvre makes for a kaleidoscopic journey across time, culture and personal mythology. His ever-evolving practice is marked by a restless spirit of experimentation and a refusal to settle on a single, ‘complete’ form of expression.

This ongoing journey informs ‘Mikan: Myself, Incomplete’, on display at the Gucci Ginza Gallery until August 24. Offering a glimpse into Yokoo’s inner world, the show brings together around 20 works, including six previously unexhibited new pieces. Ranging from self-portraits to depictions of family, they’re all centred on the theme of incompleteness and the ongoing journey of artistic creation.

Don’t miss the rooftop installation, a vivid reconstruction of Yokoo’s striking red scaffolding piece from Expo 1970, which sparked conversation for its bold representation of the unfinished. This collaboration with Gucci underscores the shared values of transformation, evolution and co-creation, inviting viewers to reflect on the beauty of the incomplete in both art and life.
