The artwork, named “NFC,” was created by Tadanori Yokoo in 1997. It belongs to the Pop Art movement and is a poster.
The artwork is vibrant and visually stimulating, fitting within the Pop Art genre through its use of bold colors and eclectic imagery. Dominated by a prominent red circle centered near the upper part of the composition, the design features numerous human figures and Japanese script. The lower part of the artwork displays a surreal scene, blending reality with abstract elements. Various figures and objects, such as a baseball bat and contemporary personalities, juxtapose traditional and modern symbols, creating a unique and thought-provoking piece. The recurring motif of cherry blossoms (“Sakura”) is inscribed in Japanese, adding cultural depth to the work.
