This work documents the posters created for a group of experimental Japanese theatre groups during the 1960s and 70s. Ranging from the vivid and sexually explicit images of 60s psychedelia to the subtle refinement of Japanese printmaking, the posters present a tumultuous period in Japanese society. The author illuminates these images, describes the context in which they were created, and provides a brief history of modern Japanese graphic design.
