Yoshitomo Nara,"Tribute To Bloodthirsty Butchers’’, (2023)

14.8 × 10 × 1cm x (5 4.5 × 3 9.10 × 2.5)inch

Silkscreens/prints on reclaimed wood or apple box board (set of pieces)

Naras inspiration came from the alternative rock band Bloodthirsty Butchers, whom Nara has frequently referenced and paid tribute to in his works (dating back to earlier drawings from 2018 and prior).

The portfolio, often stylized commercially or in galleries as "Tribute to Bloodthirsty Butchers and 7 Other Pieces" (or Tribute To Bloodthirsty Butchers 他7点組), typically includes high-quality woodcuts, lithographs, or specialized prints. These pieces fuse his signature, deceptively innocent yet rebellious wide-eyed children with handwritten text, musical themes, and raw, emotional attitude.
