Three short films by the Japanese avant-garde illustrator and animator. Regarded (unfairly) as the Japanese equivalent of Andy Warhol, these films showcase a distinctively commercial illustration look reminiscent of the current pop art movement of that decade (1960s).

These were certainly interesting. I think it's rather easy to throw around words like "postmodernism" and "pop art" to describe these, and while that wouldn't in anyway be inaccurate, I'm going to refrain from doing so. Nor will I make any failed attempts at dissecting them. Because quite frankly, I'm not entirely sure what I saw. What I will say is Tadanori Yokoo's 3 Animation Films (KISS KISS KISS, Kachi Kachi Yama, and Tokuten Eizou Anthology No. 1) challenge one's perception of what anime is exactly. I say that in so much as most of us have a pretty clear idea of what anime is,and when we hear the word, very particular images come to mind, and I'd be willing to bet those images are nothing like what's on display here. Maybe that has more to do with the fact I've seen very little in the way of avant-garde anime, thus making these surreal exercises in 1960s expressionism quite the experience for me. Definitely intriguing works of art worth seeking out if one is in the mood for something very much outside of what we mostly think of anime as being.
