World Map Room by Yokoyama & Yuichi
Brand: PictureBox Inc
Product Description
In this Yuichi Yokoyamas longawaited original graphic novel published simultaneously in Japan and France a strippedback plot and minimal characterizations allow the artistry of Yokoyamas ethereal drawings to shine through. The events within the narrative are spare and enigmatic Yokoyama is as much fascinated by shapes and visual effects as he is by character and plot. First the protagonists visit a city then our heroes watch airplanes departing and arriving at an airport next they go on board a ship and cross a river. Eventually they arrive at a building where a man welcomes and guides them to the world map room where they inspect a library. Eventually they leave and reach a pond with a sunken ship. Their guide starts to explain the ships history and slowly with casual suddenness the novel comes to a close. Yokoyama is the author of Travel New Engineering Color Engineering and Garden all published by PictureBox. He was the subject of a oneman show at The Kawasaki City Museum in 2010 and has exhibited in galleries and museums in Tokyo Singapore Rome and San Francisco. He lives and works in the suburbs of Tokyo. show more
