Exhibition, 1990 by Kazumasa Nagai

This striking poster was created by Kazumasa Nagai for his 1990 exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in Toyama, Japan. It features a bold and symmetrical composition of a fantastical face formed by radiating lines and abstract geometric elements in red, black, and white. The intricate design combines modern graphic techniques with influences from Japanese aesthetics, including symmetry and balance, while its dynamic forms evoke a sense of motion and energy. The minimalist grey background serves to highlight the surreal figure, underscoring Nagai’s mastery of visual storytelling.

Kazumasa Nagai (b. 1929) is a renowned Japanese graphic designer celebrated for his contributions to modernist design and his "Life" series of works depicting nature and animals in abstract forms. By 1990, Nagai was already an established figure in international graphic design, known for his ability to merge traditional Japanese motifs with contemporary design philosophies. The Toyama exhibition was a retrospective that celebrated his innovative approach, which had a significant influence on both Japanese and global design communities. This piece reflects his evolution towards exploring the interconnectedness of natural and abstract forms.
