No More War 2 (Artist's Proof) by Keiichi Tanaami
This is an original silkscreen print titled 'No More War 2' by the prominent Japanese Pop artist Keiichi Tanaami. Measuring 63cm x 48cm, the work is executed in a vibrant, psychedelic palette characteristic of the late 1960s, featuring high-contrast tones of orange, teal, green, and red. The composition is divided into panels: the top section depicts a pair of hands with red nails against a wavy, multicolored background; the central band displays the text 'NO MORE WAR' in a bold, shadowed font; and the bottom two-thirds contain six rectangular frames showing faceless men in suits with cloud-like heads, a recurring motif in Tanaami's critique of postwar society. The piece is manually signed in pencil at the bottom left with 'Keiichi Tanaami' and dated '1967', accompanied by the notation 'A.P.' signifying its status as an Artist's Proof. A printed banner at the bottom center reads 'DESIGN: KEIICHI TANAAMI'. The print appears to be in good vintage condition, housed in a thin black frame under glazing. There is no visible sign of significant fading or foxing, and the paper maintains a bright white border around the saturated ink, indicating careful preservation. The craftsmanship exhibits the high-quality registration and dense ink coverage typical of 1960s Japanese avant-garde graphic design.
