Following his trips to India in the late 1960s his work became steeped in mysticism, sophisticated iconography and psychedelia but remains wholly original – complex, multi-layered and said to be intensely autobiographical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe volume collects all his book cover designs, approximately 360 posters, advertising work, record covers, illustrations and prints, as well as more than 230 photographs of Yokoo moving through time. He wryly observes in the afterword, ‘The works collected here are all my miscarriages, and the book is no more than a cemetery for them.’\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eKokushokankokai, \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e328pp, 16cm x 20cm, illustrated paperback in slipcase, 2025.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Art Data","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57362912641397,"sku":"M-TH-7708-S","price":169.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0079\/5974\/0505\/files\/TheCompleteTadanoriYokoo.jpg?v=1784290232","url":"https:\/\/store.magalleria.co.uk\/products\/the-complete-works-of-tadanori-yokoo","provider":"Magalleria","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
