"His graphic design was very inspiring to many young generations. He was born in 1936-before the war, and he experienced it. His career, which started in the late 1950s, represents the conjunction between democracy and American popular culture against Japanese old traditions. And this context is important for me, as well as for my generation."
"He never hid his passion to say 'No more war'. His work of the late 1960s responded to the continued US military presence in Japan during the Vietnam War. Many motifs in his collages allude to US militarism, from comic-book fighter planes to more subtle elements."
