by Yoji Kuri

$40 · Offered by eBay

Yoji Kuri is a pioneering figure in Japanese experimental animation, internationally recognized for his avant-garde films and dark, absurd humor. This is No.9, the final issue of his self-published experimental manga series Parasite, originally created in the early 1970s. Even when depicting knives, blood, sex, and violence, Kuri’s drawings retain the simplicity and humor of a child’s doodle. By reducing disturbing subjects to extremely simple lines, he leaves us unsure whether to laugh or look away. A fascinating piece of Japanese avant-garde publishing.
