His works incorporate elements of psychedelia, occultism, and surrealism. Career: He began his career as a graphic designer at the Kobe Shimbun newspaper in 1956 and became independent in 1959. From the 1960s to the 70s, he gained attention for his poster designs for performing arts and received international acclaim. In 1972, he held a solo exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, becoming a globally recognized figure. In 1981, Yokoo abandoned his illustrious career as a designer and declared his transition to becoming an artist. This decision was also a declaration of his own exploration of the eternal themes of art versus design, and artist versus designer.
