A journey to the north, containing a total of 33 works including early works.
Hiroshi Nagai is a popular illustrator who has been active since the 1970s on numerous record jackets and advertisements, including the jacket work for the timeless masterpiece "A LONG VACATION."
A number of works depicting American landscapes such as pools, modernist houses, roadsides, and palm trees with strong colors and contrasts, allowing viewers to feel the seasons and a sense of freedom, have been exhibited both domestically and internationally. It is engraved in people's memories, regardless of age or gender, and the number of opportunities to see its illustrations on T-shirts, goods, CD jackets, books, etc. continues to increase.
There has been a re-evaluation of ?gCITY POP?h in recent years, including ?gTHE JOURNEY BEGINS?h exhibition held at Ginza Tsutaya Bookstore at the beginning of 2023, and Isetan The Space in Isetan Shinjuku in August. I'm sure many of you were able to experience his work again at the "Palm Street Songs" exhibition held at the Tokyo 2019 "Palm Street Songs'' exhibition.
This time, Nagai, who has mainly drawn clear tropical landscape illustrations, will be presenting works from summer to autumn to winter, inspired by the majestic nature of Hokkaido that he visited. ~We have carefully selected landscape works that evoke the image of "TRAVELLING NORTH,'' a journey northward to spring.
Includes many works that are rarely seen at exhibitions, such as those whose main motif is landscapes with no palm trees. The philosophy of "nostalgia,'' which is a characteristic and core of Hiroshi Nagai's works, is also sprinkled throughout.
Please find your ideal one in this book to accompany you on your journey.
